Abstract

Teachers of the Visually Impaired (TVIs) teach academic and functional living skills simultaneously to prepare students with vision impairment to be successful and independent. Current educational tools primarily focus on academic instruction rather than this multifaceted approach needed for students. Our work aims to understand how technology can integrate behavioral skills, like independence, and support TVIs in their preferred teaching strategy. We observed elementary classrooms at a school for the blind for six weeks to study how educators design lessons and use technology to supplement their instruction in different subjects. After the observational study, we conducted remote interviews with educators to understand how technology can support students in building academic and behavioral skills in-person and remotely. Educators suggested incorporating audio feedback that motivates students to play and learn consistently, student progress tracking for parents and educators, and designing features that help students build independence and develop collaborative skills.
视障学生课堂与远程技术设计探索
视障教师(TVIs)同时教授学术和功能性生活技能,使视障学生做好成功和独立的准备。目前的教育工具主要集中在学术教学上,而不是学生所需要的这种多方面的方法。我们的工作旨在了解技术如何整合行为技能,如独立性,并支持电视教师选择他们喜欢的教学策略。我们对一所盲人学校的小学教室进行了为期六周的观察,以研究教育工作者如何设计课程并使用技术来补充不同学科的教学。在观察性研究之后,我们对教育工作者进行了远程访谈,以了解技术如何支持学生面对面和远程建立学术和行为技能。教育工作者建议加入音频反馈,激励学生持续地玩和学习,为家长和教育工作者跟踪学生的进度,并设计帮助学生建立独立性和发展合作技能的功能。
