Description

The SU-network (ICCHP Summer University for Visually Impaired on Accessibility of Math, Science and Statistics) is intended to improve the overall knowledge about access to mathematical contents by visually impaired people, by improving their awareness of existing technologies, by stimulating research and by confronting teaching methods. This is highly needed in a time where learning conditions for blind and visually impaired pupils are under pressure (see wikiblind article). Only very few students succeed in mathematics or areas where the use of Mathematics is an issue, as it is in Sciences and Statistics.
