Nick Bozic, RNIB research fellow, and Steve McCall, lecturer in education (visual impairment), both at Birmingham University, review the software that can be used with microcomputers in order to support the teaching of braille reading skills to blind children. They confine their analysis to software for microcomputers commonly used by children with visual impairments: BBC, Nimbus, PC and Archimedes machines.
