  • Plan for Continuity of Learning
    Plan for Continuity of Learning During this time of school closures across the country and state, The Maryland School for the Blind (MSB) will continue to provide educational and related services through a variety of delivery methods and modes. Below you will find our plan and options for students accessing services from home. IEP Provisions and Team Meetings Individual Educational Plans (IEPs) should be implemented as written whenever possible through distance education. However, amendments of goals and objectives will be necessary in some cases and will be facilitated through an amendment agreement between the educational team and the parent or guardian. These amendments will be reflected in the student’s file through an amendment plan uploaded to the IEP system. Annual IEP meetings will be held through a teleconference platform that will allow for team access through video and/or phone conferencing. Educational Programs Curriculum and IEP educational services will be delivered through a variety of platforms based on the needs of the student, his or her access to technology and ability to complete tasks with or without support. Teachers from each grade level have sent home information about distance learning and will continue to do so throughout this timeframe. This will include specific assignments, activities, resources, and information. Many of our students will need adult structure and assistance at home, based on their age and ability to work independently. Creating a dedicated space and time for learning in your family routine is highly encouraged. Teachers will use a blend of non-tech, as well as asynchronous and synchronous teaching and learning.

  • Blindness and Runes
    1 "...blindr er betri en brenndr séi..." Runes as a Tactile Writing System1 Frederick W. Schwink University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign "Attempts to devise characters which could be understood by the blind through their sense of touch reach far back in the epoch of human progress, perhaps to the time when letters or figures were inscribed on some substance to be read by another, and certainly to the earliest period when efforts were made to give instruction to the sightless. The first recorded attempt to find such a means was made shortly after the beginning of the sixteenth century (ca. 1517), when Francisco Lucas of Saragossa, Spain, contrived a set of letters carved on thin tablets of wood."

  • Mapping Applied Linguistics
    Mapping Applied Linguistics Mapping Applied Linguistics: A guide for students and practitioners provides an innovative and wide-ranging introduction to the full scope of applied linguistics. Incorporating both socio-cultural and cognitive perspectives, the book maps the diverse and constantly expanding range of theories, methods and issues faced by students and practitioners alike. Practically oriented and ideally suited to students new to the subject area, each chapter demonstrates how applied linguists can investigate the role of language in an individual’s or group’s real-world problem, and the potential solutions available. The book provides in-depth coverage of: I Language teaching and education, literacy and language disorders I Language variation and World Englishes I Language policy and planning I Lexicography and forensic linguistics I Multilingualism and translation Including real data and international examples from Latin America, South-East Asia, the US and the UK, the book features further reading and exercises in each chapter, fieldwork suggestions and a full glossary of key terms. An interactive companion website also provides a wealth of additional resources, including ideas for research projects, links to key websites and sample answers to the chapter exercises. A reader forum allows students and practitioners to share experiences and concerns. Providing a dynamic and thorough overview of the rapidly growing field of applied linguistics, this book will be essential reading for students studying applied linguistics, TESOL, general linguistics and education at the advanced undergraduate or master’s degree level. It is also the ideal gateway for practitioners to better understand the wider scope of their work. Christopher J.

Perhaps not. Captain Picard This is hardly a scientific observation, Commander. Data Captain, the most elementary and valuable statement in science, the beginning of wisdom is I do not know. Star Trek: The Next Generation Where Silence has Lease Acknowledgements First I would like to thank the members of my thesis committee Artemis Alexiadou, that she has agreed on supervising this rather exotic topic, and Diane Wormsley for her support and undertaking the long journey to Germany. I would like to express my gratitude to all the people who have substantially contributed to my interest in braille and working with children who have a visual impairment, these are Dietmar Böhringer from Nikolauspflege Stuttgart, Maggie Granger, Diana King and above all Rosemary Parry, my braille teacher from The West of England School and College for young people with little or no sight, Exeter, UK. My special thanks goes to students and staff at The West of England School, the RNIB New College Worcester and the Royal National College for the Blind, Hereford for participating in the study. Further to those who helped to make this study possible: Paul Holland for enabling my numerous visits to The West of England School, Ruth Hardisty for co-ordinating the study, Chris Stonehouse and Mary Foulstone for their support in Worcester and Hereford and to Maggie Granger and Diana and Martin King for their friendship and for making things work even if braille was the most important thing in the world.
