  • Embossit Welcome
    ABC Amber CHM Converter Trial version, http://www.processtext.com/abcchm.html Embossit Welcome The EmbossIT software is a product of Duxbury Systems that allows you to emboss Braille Formatted Files to your braille embosser. What is a Braille Formatted File? A Braille Formatted File is a file containing characters designed to be sent to an embosser. A Braille Formatted File may be prepared by a program such as: Duxbury DBT MegaDots Microbraille ED-IT PC Pokadots These files may also be distributed as a web braille files. One frustration is that braille formatted files are not standardized. Some have spaces in them as a left margin. Some use form feeds (the control character that means end of a page), some do not. Various processing may change the end of line characters. These and other variations can be a problem for someone who just wants to produce braille. Embossit is carefully designed to work with these and other variations in file layout based on the broad experience of Duxbury Systems with many aspects of how braille is produced using computers. Another frustration about braille formatted files is that they are fixed in layout. They are not intented to be modified. If you have a file formatted for 41 characters across, there is no way to emboss that file with an embosser that can only produce 40 cells across. When you select a file, Embossit figures out what the page dimensions are. Embossit does not allow you to emboss a file that cannot be produced with the selected embosser configuration. To make braille formatted files work for Embossit, some file modifications may be necessary.

If it were possi- ble to do so, we would arrange for them to be attractive, intelligent, ambitious, sensible, and funny—all the traits, in short, we wish we could boast and never have enough of, no matter how talented we are. Obviously our children do not grow up to exhibit all these traits, but most of them do well enough with the skills and attributes we do manage to impart to them.

Bagane, Prof. S.R. Jagtap Dept. of Electronics & Telecommunication Engg., RIT, Islampur, India. [email protected] [email protected] ABSTRACT- Visually impaired people are the sense of touch to read the Braille cell and then understands the indispensable unit of our community. Their disabilities given English alphabet. about the eyesight make them less accessible to computer, educational software and digital data which turn to limit their own knowledge. The main problem faced by them is to read digital data in terms of Braille language. Braille language is represented by 6 dots arranged in 3x2 matrix and it is readable only through the sense of touch. This paper introduces electronic Braille which consists of Fig. 1 - Six dot Braille cell Braille reader and Braille writer. Reading is possible through tactile pin module arranged in 3x2 matrix and According to International building standard for a Braille cell writing is possible through the Braille keypad. Whatever (as shown in fig. 2), tactile pins should be raised up to 0.5 mm, data is to be read or write will be stored in the SD card. distance between centers of the two dots is 2.5mm and diameter This small electronic Braille device will be portable and of one dot should be 1 mm [1]. has a low cost than that of learning materials of blind people.

The designed system takes the input through Braille keyboard and produces the speech output and it also has the capability to read documents. It is believed that by implementing the designed Braille system in schools and homes, Braille literacy rate can be increased and visually impaired people can be employed and can fully participate in society. Braille printer or braille embosser (is the same thing), do the same thing as a regular printer, but it prints for blind people. Braille is named after its creator, Frenchman Louis Braille, who lost his eyesight due to a childhood accident. A full Braille cell includes six raised dots arranged in two lateral rows each having three dots. The dot positions are identified by numbers from one through six. 64 solutions are possible from using one or more dots.

Braille is the reading and writing system used by blind people all over the world. It is bumps or dots that blind people read with their fingers. As well as braille books, there are braille menus, recipes, board games and playing cards. You can even find braille on some packaging, ATM machines, lift buttons and other signs. In this booklet, we’re going to teach you some braille basics. There are activities and some great links so you can get more information. 4 How braille began Braille was invented by a French boy in 1824. His name was Louis Braille. Here’s some of his story. Louis Braille was born in 1809. He became blind due to an accident at the age of three, and later attended the first school for the blind in Paris from 1819. He was taught to read raised, enlarged print but found it very slow. Also, no one had yet found a way to enable blind people to write. Louis began to look for better ways of reading and writing for blind people.

Guru profesional adalah guru yang kompeten membangun proses pembelajaran yang baik sehingga dapat menghasilkan pendidikan yang berkualitas. Hal tersebut menjadikan guru sebagai komponen yang menjadi fokus perhatian pemerintah pusat maupun pemerintah daerah dalam peningkatan mutu pendidikan terutama menyangkut kompetensi guru. Pengembangan profesionalitas guru melalui program Guru Pembelajar merupakan upaya peningkatan kompetensi untuk semua guru. Sejalan dengan hal tersebut, pemetaan kompetensi guru telah dilakukan melalui uji kompetensi guru (UKG) untuk kompetensi pedagogik dan profesional pada akhir tahun 2015. Hasil UKG menunjukkan peta kekuatan dan kelemahan kompetensi guru dalam penguasaan pengetahuan. Peta kompetensi guru tersebut dikelompokkan menjadi 10 (sepuluh) kelompok kompetensi. Tindak lanjut pelaksanaan UKG diwujudkan dalam bentuk pelatihan guru paska UKG melalui program Guru Pembelajar. Tujuannya untuk meningkatkan kompetensi guru sebagai agen perubahan dan sumber belajar utama bagi peserta didik.
