What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · July 5, 2026
A flash drive containing instructional curriculum that teaches people with visual impairments how to safely cross streets at uncontrolled intersections — places with no traffic light, stop sign, or crosswalk signal. The content uses a step-by-step teaching sequence to help learners assess traffic flow, judge gaps, and make independent crossing decisions using non-visual cues. This is a teaching resource for orientation and mobility (O&M) specialists or rehabilitation teachers, not a standalone self-study tool — it's designed to structure lessons, not replace them. The curriculum assumes the instructor will guide practice in real-world environments, so it won't be useful without a qualified professional facilitating it.
