Book Synopsis Visual Impairment by : Heather Mason

Book excerpt: First published in 1998. This book embodies the positive philosophy that children with a visual impairment are entitled to access to the full national curriculum during their school years. In the UK, education placements for pupils and students with special needs range across a continuum from special schools and colleges, with day or residential attendance, to specialist units or individual integration into mainstream provision. Placement results from inter-disciplinary assessment and consultation and requires parental agreement. Lack of sight and measurably impaired vision constitute special needs in educational terms. The writers who have contributed to this major text are teachers and lecturers from both the specialist and mainstream areas of provision and have considerable first-hand experience in teaching pupils and students with a visual impairment.

Book Synopsis Teaching Children with Visual Impairments by : Anthony Bernard Best
Download or read book Teaching Children with Visual Impairments written by Anthony Bernard Best and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a practical handbook about how to involve parents in schools. It faces both the problems and the opportunities. The author traces the background to parental involvement since the 1960s, discusses the current balance of power and explores ways of making schools organizations which work for, rather than against, parent-teacher partnerships. She argues that a whole school approach is important but that it will not work unless the interaction between individual teachers and parents is successful. She examines ways of improving communication between parents and teachers, particularly teachers' listening skills and how to manage in-school meetings with parents, to visit parents at home and how to facilitate the running of parents' groups.
