Extensive research was completed and documented on blindness and visual impairment, social and educational inclusion, available assistive products, and science education. A teacher resource was produced for Danish middle school science teachers to create laboratory experiments that are accessible to blind or visually impaired students. The manual focuses on specific modification of skills and apparatus to be used in many experiments; it also includes background and general guidelines on teaching blind or visually impaired students.
