Abstract

Increasingly, educators are being challenged to use educational strategies that have been proven to be effective through high-quality research. As could be expected of a low-incidence disability in a field with few researchers, educators of students with visual impairments have limited research-based information to guide practice. The purpose of this chapter is to selectively examine the current state of evidence-based practices for the education of students with visual impairments and to briefly review the context for the evidence-based practice movement. In addition to identifying evidence-based practices and potential evidence-based practices for students with visual impairments, recommendations for advancing the identification of effective practices for students with visual impairments are presented.
