Hi Dave,
I'm going to blow my trumpet here and say that it is thanks
to those who told us they would like to be able to produce
additional Fingerprint material at various stages, and the
fact that Duxbury listened to one of their dealers (us),
that got in to the Duxbury Braille Translator (DBT)
eventually.
I like dealing with people who tell us what they want in
products we sell, and I like dealing with companies who
listen to what we tell them our customers want.
And, as I have heard quite a few times of late, it's
especially rewarding when we hear DBT's Fingerprint feature
is being used to help new braille users.
George.

I'm glad they've followed Fingerprint in Duxbury. I used to
teach braille many years ago and that would have been really
helpful.
Cheers
Dave

Hi Scott,
A very good braille learning course in the "FingerPrint"
course.
This was originally designed by the late Nigel Berry from
Royal National College in Hereford.
Since Nigel passed on, it has been taken up and now sold by
RNIB, but remains as Nigel designed it. (Contact RNIB
Peterborough)
It essentially begins with Grade 1 braille, and goes though
just over 20 stages, gradually introducing contractions,
until you reach full Grade 2 braille.
And for information (as opposed to blatant advertising) the
Duxbury Braille Translator (which we sell) is able to
produce braille at the various stages of the "FingerPrint"
course.
If you want some additional braille material, you might also
like to visit http://www.bauk.org.uk and go to their "BAUK
publications" section.
