** '''Summary:''' The literacy rate of visually impaired people is decreasing, which poses problems with reading. This causes a gap of information to emerge amongst this certain target audience. Due to the lack of properly skilled braille teachers, this problem is hard to handle. When a braille teaching device is introduced on the market, it is mostly focused on the roman alphabet, not including other languages. Now an Arabic braille learning device is introduced that works with an Arduino Uno and miniature solenoids. Tests have only yet been performed with LEDs lighting up to represent the braille dots.

** '''Summary:''' Braille teaching toys for blind or visually impaired kids are very limited. Therefore a 3D-printed braille puzzle for educational use has been developed. Fittle is based on fitting pieces of a braille puzzle on a certain place, and when it is correct, one is able to spell the braille word and feel the dots that the word denotes. The best results occurred after performing multiple runs with the Fittle.

** '''Summary:''' Since there is a lack of assistive tools to learn mathematics, blind students in Bangladesh are still using outdated learning tools. A study has been performed to create an effective and affordable assistive tool based on the needs of the blind students learning mathematics. Interactive methods, such as hearing and touching, were an important criterion in the design. By performing empirical tests and evaluations with teachers, experts, and end users, the use of this novel design proved to be promising in practice.

** '''Summary:''' Educational software for visually impaired students is widely available. However in the Bangla language there is a lack of proper braille teaching software that is affordable. The Bangla Braille Learning Application (BBLA) is a novel approach for low-cost braille teaching to visually impaired students. With vibrations and audio feedback, users get proper responses to their inputs.

** '''Summary:''' This research is about an engaging co-design process to create a device to help visually impaired children to identify letters and short words in braille as a first step towards reading braille. Current barriers regarding braille teaching devices are accessibility, portability, durability, usability, and functions. A design has been tested in practice, with the feedback to add various learning modes, and the reduction of the size, weight, and cost of the design.


'''Summary:''' Three visually impaired children were taught to make tactile discriminations of the braille alphabet within a matching-to-sample format. A braille character as sample stimulus was presented to the children, and they had to select the matching stimulus from a three-comparison array. To increase the ease of use, braille characters were divided in sets where there was a maximum difference between the braille dots of a stimulus. Over time the difficulty was increased, which also increased the braille level of the children.

** '''Summary:''' In the process of learning braille, it is important to have another person helping with identifying correspondence between a braille pattern and a character. A new system is introduced which bans the need for external help and boosts the individual capacities of blind or visually impaired people with a spoken dialogue system. The system consists of a braille display, speech recognizer, speech synthesizer, and a dialogue manager. Furthermore the speech was created on a system with a multimodal interaction architecture.


'''Summary:''' This article is about everything that comes into play when teaching braille to children. There is not one proper way to teach braille to children, since there are a variety of braillists that need to be taught in a variety of contexts. Regarding the future, it is important to do further research in teaching braille and the literacy of the pupils.

    • Summary: The literacy rate of visually impaired people is decreasing, which poses problems with reading. This causes a gap of information to emerge amongst this certain target audience. Due to the lack of properly skilled braille teachers, this problem is hard to handle. When a braille teaching device is introduced on the market, it is mostly focused on the roman alphabet, not including other languages. Now an Arabic braille learning device is introduced that works with an Arduino Uno and miniature solenoids. Tests have only yet been performed with LEDs lighting up to represent the braille dots.
  • Fittle: A Novel Braille Toy [2]
    • Summary: Braille teaching toys for blind or visually impaired kids are very limited. Therefore a 3D-printed braille puzzle for educational use has been developed. Fittle is based on fitting pieces of a braille puzzle on a certain place, and when it is correct, one is able to spell the braille word and feel the dots that the word denotes. The best results occurred after performing multiple runs with the Fittle.
  • An Interactive Math Braille Learning Application to Assist Blind Students in Bangladesh [3]
    • Summary: Since there is a lack of assistive tools to learn mathematics, blind students in Bangladesh are still using outdated learning tools.
