Abstract

The article discusses a study that identifies a technology approach to support a pre-service teaher of visually-impaired students with extremely low vision to do assessments for a learner with multiple disabilities. Topics cited include the significance of observations and practicum experiences to teacher preparation programs, a gap in study that delves into the issue of assessments done by teachers of students with visual impairments who are also visually impaired, and bug-in-ear technology.
