Learning New Methods

I have spent the last few years discovering and learning about myself and enjoying every minute.

One big accomplishment was learning about Louis Braille. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louis_Braille

I've found myself in a new situation where I am working with students who are visually-impaired. This opportunity has given me a glimpse of a world that I had no experience in.

I have taken, so far, a couple of on-line courses through a well established school for the blind, Hadley Institute for the blind and Visually Impaired. https://www.hadley.edu/

It has been an awesome experience learning about brailling and the history of it. If you are interested I highly recommend this school because you can set your schedule. They also offer scholarships for the courses they offer and the courses are also tailored to specific learners and learning environments.
I've learned how to use a Perkins Brailler:

and a more mobile device the slate and stylus:

The slate and stylus where a bit difficult to learn at first because not only are you using a new language but to braille it out properly on the paper you need to braille it backwards!! YIKES!
