<P style="LINE-HEIGHT: 1.7em">HumanWare is proud to
announce the recipient of the HumanWare 2011 Braille
Literacy Scholarship Program. The 2011 winner, Russell
Hinderman and his parents, Joe and Heidi of Medina,
Ohio, received a Mountbatten Learning System because of
the family’s dedication to braille literacy and
commitment to provide Russell, who was blind from birth,
with every opportunity to become a smart, successful
individual. The Mountbatten Learning System is an
electronic braille writer, note taker, and embosser with
audio output designed as a foundational early braille
literacy tool. </P></TD></TR>

<P style="LINE-HEIGHT: 1.7em">HumanWare established the
Braille Literacy Scholarship to promote braille literacy
because it is fundamental to the success of a young
child who is blind. This award is given every year to a
family who is dedicated to braille literacy. “Our
company strongly encourages braille literacy to begin in
the early ages for the many benefits that carry over
into other academic skills, such as spelling, writing,
and the structure of language, to name a few,” said
Dominic Gagliano, Vice President of Blindness Sales at
Humanware. </P></TD>

<P style="LINE-HEIGHT: 1.7em">“We selected the Hinderman
family because they have fully embraced braille literacy. To
support their son who’s now 4, Mrs. Hinderman has taken a
braille course and is labeling his toys and household objects
in braille.”<BR><BR>“The MB Learning System is an incredible
device that will help Russell both academically and socially –
by helping him interact with his sighted peers and teachers
while achieving his maximal braille potential,” said Mrs.
Hinderman. “It provides a way for Russell to express himself,
and easily participate in mainstream classroom activities
through the MountBatten’s print-to braille and
braille-to-print translation features.” </P>
<P style="LINE-HEIGHT: 1.7em">Beyond initially learning
braille in a stimulating and stress-free environment, the
Hinderman family believes the MB Learning System will provide
their son with the means to succeed as he moves into a
mainstream classroom. It can be used as a tool that
instructors use to provide timely, accessible educational
materials, to check work easily and often, and to give
immediate feedback on classroom activities and assignments.

Learning System, the Hinderman family shared their initial
experiences in a story and video. <A style="COLOR: blue"
