Hello everyone and thanks a lot for a nice nordic meeting! If you want to order a 6- or 8-dot font adapted for your country, please ask my college Kvile <kvile(a)mail.com>. You have to provide your braille table in any machine readable form like JAWS braille table. Please note: If you only need braille from the unicode braille block, you can wait for a downloadable font that I will provide as soon as it's tested and made available for download.

Agenda ideas for our next Nordic Braille meeting 9-10th October. in Finland
by Jesper Bentil Holten 10 Oct '24

10 Oct '24

Dear all. The time For our next Nordic meeting is rapidly approaching. We have the following items which we would like to suggest. 1. Hopefully last years working group regarding Braille and STEM education will have some points to share during the meeting, as they have planned a workshop before the Nordic meeting commences. 2. As you may remember Danish Braille code has undergone a large revision, and as a consequence we have at the various organisations that provide Braille Literacy courses, revised our instruction materials. We would like to share some of the various thoughts and ideas that have been put into this work, in regards to teaching of Braille for Adults. 3. We would further like to have a discussion regarding how to conduct remote teaching of Braille. As part of our planning of the visit to Finland, we would like, as soon as at all possible to know the start time of our meeting on the 9th. Also we plan to leave on the 10th in the late afternoon. We most likely will arrive on the 8th of October in the late afternoon or early evening conditional to flight schedule and availability. Best regards, Jesper.
