You don't need to forward the nfbnet-members-list and nfbnet-master-list 
messages to your list, as everyone on the list has already gotten them.

    Registration is Now Open!

    for the

    Braille Symposium

    September 27-29, 2012

    at the
    National Federation of the Blind Jernigan Institute
    Baltimore, Maryland



    The National Federation of the Blind, a leading champion for Braille, is 
excited to announce the Braille Symposium, which will provide professionals, 
blind people, and other interested parties with an opportunity to learn 
about and discuss promising practices in Braille instruction and teacher 
preparation in Braille. The symposium will feature sessions in three 
formats: vignettes from blind people on how Braille is being used today, 
presentation/discussion sessions on promising practices, and problem 
solution sessions.

    Speakers will include leading experts who will discuss the most 
innovative work that is being done on Braille today. Presentation topics 
will include:

    ·       teaching the Braille code efficiently and effectively
    ·       providing high quality Braille instruction to blind adults
    ·       current practices in Braille instruction at the university level 
for future teachers of the blind
    ·       integrating Braille instruction into the classroom reading 
curriculum
    ·       integrating Braille and print

    Problem solution sessions will focus on:

    ·       the large caseloads teachers have to manage
    ·       setting up future teachers for success in their university 
Braille courses while maintaining high standards

    Visit the Braille Symposium Web page at www.nfb.org/BrlSym to register

Inn Inner Harbor or at the NFBJI.
