Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the fascinating world of vision and learning in children with limited sight. The author, a pioneering educator, challenges the traditional approach to educating blind children, arguing that their remaining vision should be actively encouraged and developed. The book's publication in 1963 reflected a shift in thinking away from the notion that protecting sight meant limiting its use, to a new understanding that visual stimulation can enhance a child's ability to learn and interact with the world. The author presents a thorough examination of existing research on visual development, drawing from both medical and psychological literature. Through a detailed review of theories on visual maturation, sensory deprivation, and perceptual learning, the book reveals how a child's visual experience can significantly influence their ability to perceive, discriminate, and learn. This groundbreaking work provides educators with a framework for understanding the importance of visual stimulation in the education of children with limited vision, and underscores the potential for visual learning even in those with extremely low visual acuity. The author's insightful exploration of the complex relationship between vision and learning remains a crucial resource for educators and researchers seeking to unlock the full potential of all children.
