What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · July 1, 2026
This is a braille-formatted e-file of the Illustrative Mathematics Algebra 1 curriculum (Book 2, Units 3-5), produced by APH through their Louis accessible textbook database. The e-file is intended for download and embossing on a braille printer, giving a blind or low-vision student access to the same algebra content their sighted peers use in class. It's a curriculum-embedded accessibility solution, not a standalone study tool — you'll need a braille embosser and the appropriate software to produce the physical workbook pages from the file. Federal Quota funds are eligible, which means schools can order this through their APH quota allocation rather than paying out of pocket.
