Talking Vision is Vision Australia's national radio program on blindness and low vision.

This week in the final program presented by Stephen Jolley, we talk education. A number of prominent blind Australians and New Zealanders reflect on special learning in their formative years. We bring you the sound track of a video which is the product of research conducted by Shane Doepel a vision support specialist with the NSW Department of Education. We hear candid insights in to the benefits of braille and other skills which they believe have been crucial to their achievements as citizens and in particular in their professional lives.

In the program you can hear:
  • Shane Doepel, Assistant Principal Support Teacher vision with the Goonellabah Public School in NSW;
  • The sound from the video The Experience of Blind Education.
