[NFB-Braille-Discussion] Reading Speed Increases

Fri Mar 17 13:30:14 UTC 2023

Hello Mike,

I had exactly the same experience that you had in public school.  When I was growing up in the 1960s 52% of blind kids learn braille, now it’s down to 8%. The excuse is that there are more multi handicap children but I think there is still too much reliance on magnification and Technology as a substitute for learning to read braille.

I think we should all be advocates for Low Low vision kids learning braille

The attitude among many educators is a Braille is outdated and technology has taken its place. Nothing could be further from the truth! I also think that it’s a real shame that you can become a teacher is visually impaired and not be proficient in braille! That’s like being a public school teacher and not knowing how to read.

Due to the educational system I went through, I was taught to read print since I could see (although I’m severely nearsighted and my vision makes me a slow reader).  I did not have the opportunity to learn Braille in my early years.  Being a partially sighted person, the answer was always “make it bigger with magnification”, “get a stronger pair of glasses”, and so on.  This was the mentality of the sighted community because sight was what they understood.  And so I lived my life, until around age 50, after trying these methods over and over, that I realized that there was a limit to how well I could read if I used my vision.  It dawned on me that if I was ever going to overcome my reading deficiency, I had to find a method that didn’t use my eyesight.  What an epiphany that was!!

It bypassed the vision and removed the barrier that bad vision imposes.  I was hopeful that Braille would allow me to improve my reading speed.  I’ve been on that quest since then, and as I say, I’m now 66.  Unfortunately, I haven’t achieved a reading speed I would like to have (say 150 words per minute), but it’s not for a lack of trying.  Perhaps as you say … when you’re older and starting out, you may not achieve speeds that a younger person will achieve when they start reading at age 6.  I think this is similar to playing the piano which I started seriously studying at age 60.  It’s a lot easier to soak it up when you’re younger, but that’s another topic that could spawn a different conversation, so I’ll stop there.

> These days I read Braille primarily with a Braille display.  You mention that you need to read hardcopy Braille, but I find the supply is limited.  The NLS has made the decision that 85 percent of its reading material will be in audible format, and the other 15 percent will either be in electronic braille format or hardcopy braille.  That leaves us readers who are interested in Braille out in the cold.  Bookshare is of course another option.
> 
> In summary, I wish I had been given the opportunity to learn braille at a younger age, but that’s water under the bridge at this point.  All I can do is read as much as I can.  But I still stand behind my conviction that to improve reading for a partially sighted person (and certainly for a totally blind person), braille is the answer, and the sooner you embrace it and the more you use it, the better off you’ll be.

> I learned braille when I was 55 years old. I practiced every chance I got. I took my braille book to appointments where I thought I might have to wait. I read in my husband's care, on the bus, during TV commercials in the evening, anytime I had a few minutes to spare. Now at 72 years old, I still have not yet broken 100 words a minute, but I am always in the middle of at least 2 braille novels. I make labels for everything in braille. I write notes to myself. For several years, before I finally retired, I taught braille.

> But you do have to practice every single day as much as you can. If I go a couple days without reading braille, I notice my reading speed is so much slower, it frustrates me.

> And you will increase your speed faster if you read hard copy books rather than electronic braille displays where there is only a single line at a time.
> And keep your touch light, don't "scrub", etc. I'm sure you've heard all those things.

> Lastly, Jerry Whittle, used to teach braille for over 30 years to adults at the Louisiana Center for the blind. He wrote a bunch of articles that were published in magazines from the NFB: the Braille Monitor, etc. Do a google search for him. He died a while ago, but his articles are still out there. He has several on increasing reading speed.

> And if you are free on the 4th Saturdays of each month, the NFB of Hawaii holds a zoom meeting called All About Braille. I am the host. We discuss anything and everything about braille, , including increasing reading speed. If interested, email me personally at debbiegabe at live.com and I will send you the zoom link. It takes place at 10 am Hawaii time (1 pm west coast time, and 4 pm eastern time).

> Reading every day as much as possible is essential. You are not going to give up other forms of reading; you cannot get everything in Braille, anyway. Find a magazine you enjoy in Braille, some books, some business reports—you pick. Two experiences worth sharing: 1. A Braille student came to me for a recipe and took it down using her slate and stylus. She said: I am going to college and want my noses in Braille, but I am too slow. I answered: Make yourself write them with the slate and stylus. Most freshmen do not have notetaking mastered, and you can share your notes with others, so do the best you can and see how fast you improve. At Christmas break she came back for another recipe and wrote it on the slate like a pro. I said: Carolyn, you did it! She barely knew what I was talking about, but she had taken notes with the slate and stylusin in all of her classes for one semester and truly had no more concerns about speed. Second example: We had a student with a phD who was losing vision so was a fast reader in print. She was determined to build speed in Braille. She took two hours of braille during the day and read two more hours each evening 7 days a week. It took her about 3 weeks to cover the entire Braille code, and then she began reading whatever she wished. At the end of six months she took a timed reading test and read 150 words per minute. She said the effort was worth the results. That was the right time for her to do it. Students who learn as children keep up their speed pretty easily. If the speed has increased as an adult, you need to keep on reading regularly to maintain it.
> suggestions on technique: pet the Braille lightly and keep your fingers moving to the right, so you are getting part from context, but do not go back and worry about single words, so your muscle memory is being developped. 2. Get identical texts of Braille and recorded material. Set the player just a little faster than you can read the Braille and make yourself keep up. 3. If you did not get the sense from context, read the entire page again, keeping up your speed, three or four times if necessary. It will come! Mabel Nading and I did lots of testing of speed building at the Iowa Commission for the Blind in the 1970's. Some of our students taught us a lot by their success. Determination and discipline make a huge difference. I think some of this stuff is in the Braille Monitor somewhere.
