What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · May 14, 2026
This is the Enhanced Print edition of the FVLMA protocol forms — the structured assessment documents used by educators and vision specialists to conduct a Functional Vision and Learning Media Assessment. The FVLMA is a formal evaluation process that determines how a student with visual impairment uses their remaining vision and identifies the most appropriate learning media (braille, large print, audio, or a combination). These printed protocol booklets are a replacement or optional component for the full FVLMA Kit, not a standalone assessment system — you'll need the complete kit and a trained professional to conduct the evaluation. This is a professional-use item; it's only useful in the hands of a Teacher of Students with Visual Impairments (TVI) or similarly credentialed evaluator.
