implementing a successful remote teaching model for instructing students
who are blind or visually impaired and their teachers around the
country. Whether the student is in a remote or urban area or with a
teacher of the blind that needs those technology skills also, everyone
learns together through daily remote access instruction. In this
session, Dr. Robinson will provide participants an outline of technology
tools and instruction on how to access students/other
teachers/personnel anywhere and teach through remote technologies.
BYOD—laptop, talking software, and iOS device to learn and use these
incredible tools that allow more time with students and instruction to

impaired, teachers of the blind, blind adults and parents, these remote
skills will apply to all types of instruction.
