    TEDI 3 Week 1 - Understanding low vision in the classroom (Hestelle Viljoen)
    (2019-06-01) Viljoen, Hestelle
    In this video, Hestelle Viljoen discusses the ways in which children with visual impairment experience classroom education. She discusses the different kinds of visual impairment, such as central vision loss, peripheral vision loss, interrupted vision, and other impairments, and how these have specific impacts on classroom learning. She discusses how the diversity of potential visual impairments require different strategies to ameliorate them in the classroom setting, and emphasises the importance of communicating with the learner to develop appropriate interventions.
