What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · May 23, 2026
This is a professional training resource for orientation and mobility (O&M) specialists — both those in training and those already practicing in the field. O&M instruction teaches people who are blind or have low vision to navigate independently using techniques like white cane travel, spatial awareness, and environmental mapping. The book presents creative, hands-on instructional approaches that go beyond standard curricula, useful for practitioners looking to expand their teaching toolkit. It's a text resource, not a device — the benefit lands with the students whose instructors use these techniques, not directly with the end user. Available as a make-to-order physical copy or EPUB; digital versions require a separate EPUB reader app.
