This course is designed to provide students with knowledge and skills necessary to design and implement programs for persons who have visual impairments and additional disabilities. Topics include assistive technology, augmentative and alternative communication, literacy instruction, sensory processing, adaptive behavior, and self-help skills. An emphasis will be placed on adaptations that enhance functioning for persons with developmental delays, autism, medical conditions, deaf-blindness, communication disorders, and those with common syndromes and eye disorders related to multiple disabilities. This course requires a weekend at the Kentucky School for the Blind in Louisville.
