Jamie, I hope that you understand that what is most effective will depend on 
how much vision the student has. One scenario would be that if one knows 
braille and has enough vision to read large print, but reading for a long 
period of time causes that person eye-strain and headaches, then braille 
would probably be more effective for that person. This is only one among 
many scenarios.

Hey everyone,
    I know I haven't writtten in a long time, so I'll give you the short 
update before I ask my question.  I am currently getting my masters in VI. 
That being said I am starting to work on my final paper almost like a 
thesis.  Anyway, my topic has to do with braille verses large print, or 
using optical devices in the classroom.  I want to compare which is more 
affective for a student.  I have heard there is a lot of research out there 
about this, but I'm not sure where to look.  IF anyone has any suggestions 
that would be great.

Thanks,
Jamie
