What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · June 18, 2026
This is a professional reference book aimed at educators, specialists, and therapists who assess students with visual impairments, including those with combined vision and other disabilities. It addresses how visual impairment complicates standard assessment tools and how teams can adapt their approach to get a more accurate picture of a student's learning potential. You're buying a print book (made to order, 10–14 business days), not software or a hands-on AT device — it's a resource for the people who support visually impaired students, not a direct-use tool for students themselves. Teams working with students who are deafblind or have multiple disabilities alongside vision loss will find it especially relevant, since dual-diagnosis assessment is particularly tricky to navigate without guidance.
