What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · May 23, 2026
A professional reference book for teachers of students with visual impairments, covering all nine domains of the Expanded Core Curriculum — the skills beyond standard academics that blind and low-vision students need to develop, such as orientation and mobility, social interaction, independent living, and use of assistive technology. Written for TVIs (Teachers of the Visually Impaired) and related service providers, it offers both the theoretical rationale and practical classroom strategies for each ECC area. This is a complete standalone resource — a book, not a curriculum kit — so no additional materials are required to use it, though implementation in a school setting will naturally involve collaboration with students, families, and other specialists. Available in print (made to order, 10–14 business days) or EPUB format requiring a compatible e-reader; the no-returns policy applies to both.
