Study of Braille Fluency in Australia and New Zealand
https://dApdots.ridbc.org.au
The results of the research into Oral Reading Fluency (ORF) of children around Australia and New Zealand who read braille will be shared. There were 73 students in total. These results were compared to Australian sighted normative data. Results were similar to findings in the United States where their rates were predicted to be lower than their sighted peers.
As well as students, 23 Itinerant Teachers gave feedback regarding braille specific resources and teaching strategies they found to be useful. These will be outlined in the presentation.
As well as the teachers' feedback, resources have been specifically produced to try and reduce the fluency gap. These are available for perusing.
