In this podcast, Health Education for Children with Disabilities, Charlotte Cushman talks with Helen Osborne about:
-
Understanding the learning challenges of students who are blind, deaf-blind, or have other physical and cognitive disabilities.
-
Using tactile objects, picture books, technology, clear explanations, and other strategies to teach about health.
-
Working as a team with the student, family members, teachers, and interpreters.
A transcript of the podcast is included, as is a list of resources for health literacy for students who are blind or visually impaired, including those who have multiple disabilities or deafblindness.
