Tüzün, Ümmüye Nur – Journal of Science Learning, 2021
2e (twice-exceptional) students are gifted and differently-abled, so they need specific learning domains according to their needs. This research aimed to design science learning domains for a 2e (gifted and blind) student to enhance his critical thinking in his special learning needs in Ankara province in Turkey in the 2020-2021 academic year's…

Abed, Mohaned G.; Shackelford, Todd K. – Journal of Visual Impairment & Blindness, 2021
Students with visual impairments (i.e., blindness and low vision) encounter unique social and structural challenges in higher education. Students with visual impairments are less likely to graduate than are students who are not visually impaired. This disparity may be attributable, in part, to academic failures associated with challenges posed by…

Hahn, Marcelo; Cruz, Frederico; Carvalho, P. Simeao; Ferreira, Vanessa; Marques, Filipe; Macieira, Cláudio – Physics Education, 2021
Renewable energy is a trending topic due to its importance in today's society especially because of global warming. Because of its importance, this topic should be discussed at schools in an inclusive education environment. Experimental work is a very good activity to provide students effective conceptual discussions, but it is necessary to…

Ubaque-Casallas, Diego; Castañeda-Peña, Harold – HOW, 2020
Little international research exists on EFL (English as a Foreign Language) student teachers regarding non-normative corporalities: transgender and blind identities. Similarly, few studies in Colombia have investigated transgender/blind EFL student teachers to understand the various dimensions of their identities. This research study explores the…

Rosenblum, L. Penny; Cheng, Li; Zebehazy, Kim; Emerson, Robert Wall; Beal, Carole R. – Journal of Visual Impairment & Blindness, 2020
Teachers of students with visual impairments clearly have an important opportunity to promote graphics literacy skills for students with visual impairments through providing descriptions to make educational content accessible. Guidelines for appropriate image descriptions have been developed by the National Center on Accessible Materials (NCAM), a…

Candela, Anthony R. – Journal of Visual Impairment & Blindness, 2019
Computer programming (also known as coding) is a career path that many individuals choose to pursue. The occupation of computer programmer has in the past and will continue in the future to afford people who are visually impaired (i.e., those who are blind or have low vision) a wide variety of job possibilities. Because students with visual…

Seo, JooYoung – TechTrends: Linking Research and Practice to Improve Learning, 2019
The issue this paper addresses is the lack of attention to inclusivity of people with visual impairments in the maker movement. To capture major challenges which blind makers are faced with in makerspaces and to learn how to pursue a more accessible making ecology, three online communities for blind makers (The Blind Arduino Blog; Raspberry VI;…

Michael, Jessica; Wohlers, H. David – Journal of Science Education for Students with Disabilities, 2019
Chemistry laboratories ordinarily involve a number of visual observations and require qualitative and quantitative explanations of these observations. A student with blindness at Truman State University successfully completed the laboratory portion of the non-majors liberal arts chemistry course with the assistance of a senior undergraduate…

Martins, Ana Teresa; Faísca, Luís; Vieira, Helena; Gonçalves, Gabriela – Journal of Deaf Studies and Deaf Education, 2019
Studies addressing the recognition of emotions in blind or deaf participants have been carried out only with children and adolescents. Due to these age limits, such studies do not clarify the long-term effects of vision and hearing disabilities on emotion recognition in adults. We assessed the ability to recognize basic emotions in 15 deaf adults…

Kolitsky, Michael A. – Journal of Science Education for Students with Disabilities, 2019
The geologic method of stratigraphy which studies the structure of the earth by making layers was employed with 3D laser cutting techniques to make more easily defined tactile regions in templates of cells, tissues and anatomic regions containing muscles and bones. Templates were made audio responsive by hand-drilling a small hole in a template…

van Leendert, Annemiek; Doorman, Michiel; Drijvers, Paul; Pel, Johan; van der Steen, Johannes – Technology, Knowledge and Learning, 2022
Braille readers use a braille display and text-to-speech synthesizer while reading and comprehending mathematical expressions and equations. Teachers need to have technological, pedagogical and content (TPACK) knowledge and skills for exploiting the potential of these devices in mathematics education. They have to understand how the use of…
