With schools starting back up again, it is important to take note of the many challenges already faced by students with visual impairments prior to this pandemic. In her video, Molly highlights a few of the obstacles she and many other blind students face in a normal classroom setting. With traditional learning environments changing so rapidly, many visually impaired students are left trying to navigate unfamiliar and potentially inaccessible environments. . . How are you feeling about the current schooling situation? How have you had to adapt to tackle this school year? Let us know in the comment section! https://youtu.be/FQ4n96YJvk8
Since 1991, The Vision of Children Foundation has set its sights on paving the path for vision research.
