Weekly Dose of Braille
The Weekly Dose of Braille is created by our Youth Services Librarian and Braille Transcriber, Denise Bean, with the help of our Instructional Materials team. It gives you a taste of braille examples that may be used in worksheets or textbook formatting. It is a miscellaneous mixture of tricky, sometimes challenging circumstances, that a braille transcriber may come across or question. Provided each week is a downloadable PDF file on each topic, a brf file can also be made available for your convenience.
This question came in last week from a paraeducator who works directly with a student who is blind in the classroom for a social studies class.
“Are flowcharts important to transcribe into braille or can I just put a flowchart into a 1-3 list format?”
This week’s dose cannot possibly cover all the details of section 6, but this week’s dose will provide a better understanding of the Paraeducator’s question.
Have a wonderful week of transcribing!
Denise
