Dear Fellow Teachers of the visually impaired and orientation and mobility specialists. I know many of you but for those who don’t know me my name is Mary Fran Anderson and I am a teacher of the visually impaired working as the BCVI assistive technology resource for the visually impaired.

Hopefully we can create an interactive blog for ideas and suggestions.
