7. VisionHow do you see things? My vision is to see and share a world of color and a world of clarity. With the following training participants will realize the importance of vision Value and care for their eyes and embrace the sense of sight in others, especially children.
9. Prevention+ Care=Mission To train those interested in a process that can identify weakness and prevent blindness. To become recertified in vision training. To make appropriate referrals to a full exam with an ophthalmologist or optometrist.
14. Vision guides our movement and directs our paths bothnear and far.
15. Overview This capstone project is a follow-up project for graduate work at Walden University and course 6190. Resources will follow systematic research from the Prevent Blindness North Carolina, Council for Exceptional Children, and the Journal of Learning Disabilities. For Design purposes, my primary choices are to apply Microsoft Office, YouTube, Microsoft Word, Adobe Acrobat Suite 4.0 and SlideShare.
17. Overview For Communication I plan to share these slides with SlideShare. Theories of Multiple Intelligence as well as theories of learning styles will enhance instructional applications. Format used is Microsoft Word. Print will be adapted according to page and content visibility.
22. Testing Charts and Materials Which tests are used in vision screening? Snellen Test-distance vision testing Rosenbaum Pocket Vision Screening for near vision testing Lea Symbols for testing at ten feet Letter E for younger children Stereopsis Testing for colorblindness
34. Identify common diseases/conditions Stabismus (Misalignment) Amblyopia (Lazy Eye) Anisometropia and Antimetropia Problems with near vision Problems with far vision Blindness-(one eye, both eyes) Diseases and Conditions
42. Most states require screening. Prevention is the key and should start at preschool level. Medicaid pays for screening but only 28% take advantage. Only 2/3 children are identified which leaves one child at risk for blindness. Research
43. Compare and Link! An article that calls attention to research regarding visual attention can be found in the Journal of Learning Disabilities- “Is there a Common Linkage among visual attention and magnocelluar processing” (Solan, Temray Hansen & Larson, 2007
44. Vision is a major factor and essential for a child to read and write.
45. Visual Attention Visual Attention has a great influence upon whether a child can read and write. Attention is given for other tests that may be applied to visual attention to numbers An article that calls attention to research regarding visual attention can be found in the Journal of Learning Disabilitie-Is there a Common Linkage among visual attention and magnocelluar processing”(Solan, Temray Hansen & Larson, 2007)
