| 1 | D: Let’s Introduce Ourselves Please introduce yourself. Tell us something important and something fun about you. You are welcome to post a picture of yourself if you like. D: What exactly is a Visual Impairment? I would like you to begin a conversation on what you believe constitutes a visual impairment. You have many resources from which to draw. Your own cultural background and belief systems, your readings, and encounters you have had with people who self-identify as having a visual impairment and many other supports. There is no right or wrong answer to this question. Please comment on the NFB paper and any of the readings |
