Colleagues,
I thank Dr. Bell for sharing this announcement. I have only skimmed through
it, but it appears to be the best job announcement for a teacher of blind
students/visually impaired/low vision that I have ever seen.
I have read so many or job announcement lately, many of which contain
requirements for a valid driver's license (which I believe is illegal, but
that is another post). Reading this announcement, I believe that we should
consider drafting and publishing a model job announcement/description for
teachers of blind students/visually impaired/low vision.
If others agree, I volunteer to spearhead and shepherd the effort. I
welcome feedback from each of you.
Thank you for your consideration of this idea,
Carlton
