Visual Braille

Now take the lower of the two staircases and go past the series of trainers,
which primarily use Rock/Ground types, except the last one, which has a couple
Machoke. Move on to the door that won't open...or will it? The posts on
Either side have a message, but it's in Braille. It says 'Cut,' so just use
Cut while facing the door and it will open. Go on in.

Thanks for watching my first upload for the project "Renaissance Man: A 9-Month Rebirth", where I attempt to master 20 different ...

I'm a first year student nurse working on an essay regarding communication. I'm detailing types of communication, verbal, non verbal, and visual. However what type of communication would you class Braille as? I kinda know its non verbal but I was sort of limiting this to body language and things. Would I stick it in non verbal? I tried to stick it in visual... but then re-read my essay and was thinking, hmmm.. since blind people are visually impaired... not the best way to classify it!!

UK preferred please.

Thanks for your answer but would written not be considered visual communication???

tactile, since you read it via touch.
definitely non -verbal but that just clasifies it even further.

I know the white cane was only officially used in the 1900s, so if anyone can tell me common visual aids of the 1800s, or what Braille himself used, that would be great.

You may find the National Federation of the Blind as an excellent source regarding the historical use of vision aids.

My nephew has been diagnosed with a rare eye condition that will result in blindness one day. He is currently legally blind without glasses and not much better with glasses. The school thinks he doesn't need services yet. Do we have to wait for him to go completly blind before getting him services. He will obviously need to learn braille. It seems stupid to wait until he loses all sight....

If he is going to lose sight later on, then yes, he should be recieving services NOW. He may not need to learn to use a cane yet if he is still able to get around safely with his glasses on, but he NEEDS TO LEARN BRAILL NOW, because if he doesn't and waits until he loses too much vision ot read print, he will be ILLITERATE. He should also start learning how to use accessible technology to help navigate on a computer, and he should especially be learning how to touch type without looking at the keys. If the school is reluctant to provide these services, seek help. Contact the National Federation of the Blind and explain your situation. They fight cases like this all the time because it's farily common for schools to be hell bent on having a partially sighted student use their eyes as much and for as long as possible, even if it will hurt them later or is limiting their abilities now. There are articles on the NFB website for parents about this. Go to NFB.org

I am blind and have gone through all of this while in school. I also have many friends who are blind, and I am an active member of the National Federation of the Blind. Email me if you have any more questions or concerns. BlackByrdFly@gmail.com

Say inside the lift or elevator, is braille labels or keypad with a protude dot on number 5 better to press for the floor number. I'm working on a barrier free project. With explanation will be very much appreciate.

what are you asking?

The only thing I can think is you meant to say braile dots OR the number 5....If I suddenly went blind tommorow, because I have glaucoma, I think a raised number 5 would be better. I dont know how to read braile.
