The Creation of Particular Learning Methods for Blind Children

Author : Krishnendu Roy
Volume 7 No.2 July-September 2018 pp 62-65

Abstract

The aim of the research is to provide a disseminate view on the methods for learning for visually impaired children. The economic factors along with psycho-social aspects have impacted blind education in India. Due to the lesser number of population, not impacting much on the productivity of the state, visually impaired children suffer the consequence of social and political ignorance leading to incomplete education and illiteracy. The current research is based on thematic analysis of the information gathered from literature review. As per the research it can be concluded that the role of family, specialized teachers and schools for special education in educating blind children is crucial for their academic achievement, building good grades which would further contribute to their employment. With several innovations on learning techniques, Braille method has always been the oldest and common used. Apart from Braille the use of virtual reality method for spatial knowledge have been quite frequently used to teach blind children. It can be recommended that in order to fit into the cut-throat competition of achieving educational success for future progression, it is equally important to educate physically disabled children by making them specially-abled through several learning techniques utilizing other skills apart from visualization.
