McNamara, Scott W. T.; Brian, Ali; Bittner, Melissa – Journal of Teaching in Physical Education, 2022
Identifying tools to reinforce content on teaching children with visual impairments (VI) is needed to better inform future physical educators as children with VI often have poor physical education (PE) experiences. Content acquisition podcasts (CAPs), podcasts created with instructional design principles and expert-developed content, may provide…

Rottmann, Thomas; Haberzettl, Nora; Krämer, Magali – Mathematics Education Research Journal, 2020
Disparate approaches to assessment pursue differing purposes. Clinical assessment interviews like the Australian early numeracy interview (ENI; Clarke et al. 2002) or its German version ElementarMathematisches BasisInterview (EMBI; Peter-Koop et al. 2007) can be used to gain insights into children's mathematical thinking and aim at providing a…

Lang, Markus; Sarimski, Klaus – Journal of Visual Impairment & Blindness, 2018
Several studies reported a higher prevalence of maladaptive behaviors in children and adolescents with visual impairments (that is, those who are blind or have low vision) compared with typically developing youths. Early studies reported that up to 57% of youths with visual impairments also have mental health problems. These include problems with…

Absoud, Michael; Parr, Jeremy R.; Salt, Alison; Dale, Naomi – Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 2011
Available observational tools used in the identification of social communication difficulties and diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) rely partly on visual behaviours and therefore may not be valid in children with visual impairment. A pilot observational instrument, the Visual Impairment and Social Communication Schedule (VISS), was…

A Review of Research on the Literacy of Students with Visual Impairments and Additional Disabilities
Parker, Amy T.; Pogrund, Rona L. – Journal of Visual Impairment & Blindness, 2009
Research on the development of literacy in children with visual impairments and additional disabilities is minimal even though these children make up approximately 65% of the population of children with visual impairments. This article reports on emerging themes that were explored after a review of the literature revealed nine literacy studies…

McLinden, M. – Journal of Intellectual Disability Research, 2012
This article provides a synthesis of literature pertaining to the development of haptic exploratory strategies in children who have visual impairment and intellectual disabilities. The information received through such strategies assumes particular significance for these children, given the restricted information available through their visual…

Veispak, Anneli; Ghesquiere, Pol – Journal of Visual Impairment & Blindness, 2010
A proportion of children with visual impairments have specific reading difficulties that cannot be easily explained. This article reviews the data on problems with braille reading and interprets them from the framework of the temporal-processing deficit theory of developmental dyslexia.

Kesiktas, A. Dolunay – Educational Sciences: Theory and Practice, 2009
Studies showing developmental delays in infants and children with visual impairments have triggered early childhood special education studies for this population. Early childhood special education guidelines for visually impaired infants and children range from individualized services to personnel preparation issues while all display certain…

Minks, Adrian; Williams, Huw; Basille, Karen – Educational Psychology in Practice, 2020
For 40 years there has been a call for improvement in assessing the academic potential of children and young people (CYP) with visual impairment. Anecdotal evidence regarding the use of psychometric assessments with CYP with visual impairment suggests that some professional practice has involved the use of assessments normed on a sighted…

Zebehazy, Kim T.; Smith, Thomas J. – Journal of Visual Impairment & Blindness, 2011
From an early age, children with visual impairments can be at a disadvantage for developing social skills. Since vision plays a role in the early development of social behaviors and of social cognition, the lack of visual cues could lead to difficulties in initiating and maintaining social interactions. The study presented here investigated…

Brennan, Susan A.; Luze, Gayle J.; Peterson, Carla – Journal of Visual Impairment & Blindness, 2009
This survey explored the emergent literacy experiences that parents provided for their children with visual impairments, aged 1-8, as well as the parents' perceptions of the professional support that they received to facilitate these activities. The results indicated that the parents and children engaged in reading, singing songs, and writing or…

Papadopoulos, Konstantinos; Metsiou, Katerina; Agaliotis, Ioannis – Research in Developmental Disabilities: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2011
The present study explored the total adaptive behavior of children and adolescents with visual impairments, as well as their adaptive behavior in each of the domains of Communication, Daily Living Skills, and Socialization. Moreover, the predictors of the performance and developmental delay in adaptive behavior were investigated. Instrumentation…

Robinson, Barbara L.; Lieberman, Lauren J. – RE:view: Rehabilitation Education for Blindness and Visual Impairment, 2007
The authors examined the effects of a parent resource manual on physical and sedentary activity levels of children with visual impairments. Children and youth with visual impairments, aged 9-23 years (7 girls, 11 boys), attended a 1-week summer sports camp in New York state. The authors found that 1 month after they provided the families of the…
