[blindkid] Wanting find info Self-discovery O&M method

[Merry-Noel Chamberlain]

Hello,
 
It is actually called the "Structured Discovery" method and a book that really focuses on this method is "Cognitive Learning Theory and Cane Travel Instruction: A New paradigm"
by Richard Mettler.  It is quite a difficult read.  This is one of books used at Louisiana Tech in their Orientation and Mobility Master's level classes.  Most anyone can learn it by it really needs to be taught by a person with National Orientation and Mobility Certification.

Hi guys: for those living outside of NFB boundaries any books or info 
recommended on the self-discovery O&M method I've heard talked about on the 
lists? Can I learn it myself? How's it taught? Am I right that it has to do 
with using the cognitive theory in that one explores the world and creates 
mental schemes on his or her own? Whatever info appreciated be it books, 
articles or podcasts that might talk about the method, and yes my English is 
good enough to understand so go ahead and recommend!
Gerardo
