Abstract
In this video, Hestelle Viljoen discusses how visual impairment affects learning. She discusses the three ways it effects learning: through differences experiential learning (characterising how objects are similar or different); through the development of different skills to access subject matter and curricula (which are typically designed for sighted learners); which can include the use of text magnifiers, audio supplements, or tactile learning tools; and thirdly, the development of social skills and personal capacity skills such as personal hygiene, completing household tasks, etc.
