Hello everyone ?
Via another listserve I received the following -
Hadley School for the blind is holding its first web seminar on April 26 at
noon CDT. The name of the seminar is "Braille: Everyday, Every Way"
It is free to Hadley students already enrolled in the Professional and Family
Education programs or to professionals in the blindness field. Registration is
required for this interactive seminar. Space is limited, so early registration
recommended.
To register, email seminars@xxxxxxxxxx with your name and email address. Please
put Braille seminar in the subject line. You will receive a confirmation email
containing your password to login to the seminar, as well as a review of
technical requirements.
Participants will learn how braille can positively impact the lives of family
members who are blind, the importance and value of braille and how braille can
be used in everyday life.
Those who sign up can participate in an online discussion on better advocacy
for braille in local communities. The seminar will cover topics like braille
on maps, restaurant menus, labeling personal home items, and note taking.
Also, included is how braille can benefit visually impaired people in the
workplace, creative uses of braille, and how to pass along the importance of
braille to others. During the seminar students will have the opportunity to
present questions to the seminar instructors.
I will not be able to ?attend? the seminar but would love to hear from anyone
that gets to attend.
Hadley stated that they will be having more web seminars in the future.
