[Pibe-division] Notetaking Skills

[marianne at denningweb.com]

I think this is definitely an area where blind students have a significant
deficit. It is so much easier to provide the teacher notes, have a note
taker (a person in the class) or other modifications rather than teach the
blind student to take notes. 

 

I find schools use graphic organizers and other very visual note taking
training. This does not work well for Braille students. 

 

I really like Robert's suggestion.

Hello,

I am a youth transition coordinator and support young blind adults as they
start college. I would say that the note taking skills that a blind student
needs are the same as a sited peer. Any articles or You Tube tutorials will
equip he or she if they are receptive and ready to improve their note taking
skills.

Good Afternoon,

 

We have a student who is being taught skills to get ready for college along
with the use ADL stuff.  The staff is noticing that whenever we ask him to
listen to a slelection and take notes, he basically does one sentence
recordings.  Is there any information on notetaking skills for someone who
is visually impaired?
