This book was released on 2017-11-08 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the Washington State School for the Blind The casual visitor to the Washington State School for the Blind carries away with him a vivid picture - a picture of six solid brick buildings set closely together, overlooking the beautiful Columbia River valley, with its orchards, dairies and city lights; of smiling boys and girls, strolling arm-in-arm on the walks that parallels the front of the buildings, vying with one another on spacious lawns, play ing football, wrestling, flying kites or roller skating; of scholastic. Activity with children rushing about with slates in their hands and Braille books under their arms; and over all, the strains of various musical instruments - piano, violin, cello, pipe organ, clarinet - blended in sweet discord. The visitor, if he be of an inquiring mind, may ask what lies behind the happy, bustling life of this institution that releases almost daily souls imprisoned by physical darkness and gives to them wings of freedom to soar to personal triumphs. What is its history? And should he care to delve into records of the school to learn this, he will find his efforts of little avail, for nothing heretofore has ever been written on the history of the education of the blind in the State of Washington, except a few scattered and unrelated facts. That this story may be reconstructed to its fullest detail is the purpose of this study. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Allen and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-11 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Perkins Institution: A Survey of the Work for the Blind in the United States From Its Beginning Until Now; Reprint From the Annual Report for the Year Ending August 31, 1926 I have found a statement to the effect that bringing blind pupils and deaf pupils together in social contact might tend to neutralize the class consciousness of both, which the superintendent making it felt inevitably followed their separate massing in institutions; and another statement that for a period of years the Iowa College for the Blind actually admitted as pupils varying proportions of children with almost perfect vision, perhaps with the hope that this leaven of sight would help nor malize the rest. It did help the blind somewhat but hurt the seeing; and being deemed unjustifiable in any case was finally stopped. Once the semi-private schools were well begun their multiplication as public state institutions west and south was rapid - too rapid indeed to be altogether wholesome, even where distinct from the deaf. A few superintendents reported amid their various struggles in making a start that it would have been better policy to consider a school already estab lished a regional one for a section of states. And so it probably would have been until each state had had the benefits Of deliberation. Some of them would not have located in small towns or out on the wilds, as a few did merely because somebody had donated land there. Certain com munities did sink state pride and send pupils a while for schooling to ad jacent territory; and at least six states and the District of Columbia still do so. Others either pioneered all over again, sent out a questionnaire or a visiting committee or, as in the case of Ohio, got Dr. Howe to Open at Columbus a specimen school. One zealous blind man, Samuel Bacon, started institutions in three states; another, William H. Churchman, even planned and superintended more than one and wrote reports that are still standard. Generally speaking, each new venture began much as the three pioneers did; - that is, either trained or borrowed pupils already trained and, having demonstrated on tour the educability of blind youth.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report of the Kentucky School for the Blind at Louisville, Kentucky: For the Year Ending June 30, 1939 The Talking Books while serving a great need to the blind are found limited as to subject matter and a more liberal selec tion is a distinct need. To the present date two hundred and twenty-seven have been distributed in Kentucky; of this num ber one hundred and sixty-four are the electrical type and sixty three are spring driven for use in rural homes in which there is no electricity. Answering in a highly satisfactory way, the sundry ques tions of sighted people is the moving picture Teaching the Blind to See which we have had taken of our school life and work. This technicolored film, the school's good will agent, depicts every phase of the blind work as it is being advanced in Kentucky. Its presentation has a word of introduction by the superintendent and then the story of the school unfolds. Shown at club meetings, Sunday School classes, and at various clinics throughout the State, the film has done much to inform an unbe lieving public of what the blind can do and especially stresses the adult concession stand and the blind in industry.

This book was released on 2017-07-13 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bulletin of Information of the Kansas State School for the Blind, Kansas City, Kan., 1919 It is never possible to consider blindness anything other than a great calamity, and it is peculiarly dreadful when it occurs in a young child, but it is by no means an imperative bar to a happy and successful life. It is a matter of common observance that blind people are, as a rule, happier than those who are deaf. The reason for this is, doubtless, that the blind, because of their apparent helplessness, immediately excite a feeling of sympathy and a desire on the part of those about them to be of assistance to them. They are, therefore, more gently cared for and more kindly treated and they receive greater consideration than is accord ed to the deaf, whose affliction, not being so evident, is not recognized, while their failure to promptly respond is assumed to be due to careless ness or inattention. It makes those having to do with them impatient in consequence. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Education of the Blind No up-to-date treatise on the important and interesting subject of "The History of the Education of the Blind" being in existence in this country, and the lack of such a text-book specially designed for the teachers in our blind schools being grievously felt, I have, in response to repeated requests, taken in hand the compilation of such a book from all sources at my command, adding at the same time sundry notes and comments of my own, which the experience of a quarter of a century in blind work has led me to think may be of service to those who desire to approach and carry on their work as teachers of the blind as well equipped with information specially suited to their requirements as circumstances will permit. It is but due to the juvenile blind in our schools that the men and women to whom their education is entrusted should not only be acquainted with the mechanical means of teaching through the tactile sense, but that they should also be so steeped in blind lore that it becomes second nature to them to think of and see things from the blind person's point of view. Paradoxical as the latter phrase may appear, it is none the less an absolute fact. It is necessary for a teacher to realise and to thoroughly appreciate the difficulties which his pupil has to encounter, before he can satisfactorily remove them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A New Era in the Education of Blind Children: Or Teaching the Blind in Ordinary Schools A few words in the way of preface may be said as to the discussion of the. Idea of educating the blind with the sighted. Mr. Bird, of London, has, for twenty-five voars, advocated this cause, bv publication and correspondence, under the name of the home and social system. Mr. Martin, Royal Blind Asylum, Edinburgh, has for fifteen years. There and elsewhere, urged the education of the blind in sighted schools, and the Directors of the same institution have used their influence in the same cause. Several books written about the blind have expressed approval of the principle; an individual schoolmaster here and there, each after his own fashion, has kindly received and taught any blind child he met, and it is known that several young men have passed through the Uni' versities, which is an illustration of the same principle. Rev. Mr. Blackstoek, the late teacher of the Mission, much encouraged the prosecution of this movement, and was at the head of a Society of the Blind in Glasgow, which entered heartily into the matter by sending circulars containing the first account of the Greenock system, and the testimony of Mr. Kay and others, to various Mem bers of Parliament, and also a Memorial to the Lord Advocate. The President of the Glasgow Mission used most earnest means with various Members of Parliament, which did very much to secure the recognition of the claims of the blind in the Education Bill. To him, therefore, these named above and others, more especially the Greenock friends who wrought out the experiment, as well as to George Anderson, Esq., and Sir David vvedderburn, Bart, whose amendment was agreed to, making provision for the education of the blind, the thanks of the country are eminently due.
