Jennifer speaking at Visual Learning Seminar
This summer Jennifer Kaut M.Ed and Dr. Briana Larson are touring several cities presenting on Visual Learning.
The purpose of this seminar is to provide a better understanding of the
connection between vision and learning. Experts estimate that 80% of what
we learn is mediated through the visual system. Research shows that 60%
of students identified as “problem learners” have undetected vision problems.
This number increases with children diagnosed with Developmental Delays,
Dyslexia and Autism Spectrum Disorders. Seminar attendees will understand
how visual input and processing skills affect academic achievements in reading,
writing, spelling, mathematics, and classroom performance; discover how to
recognize undiagnosed vision deficiencies that can save years of struggling and
become familiar with how to achieve full visual potential for children with
Down syndrome, Cerebral Palsy and Autism Spectrum Disorders. Attendees
will also be briefed about interdisciplinary strategies to collaborate and provide
care for individuals of all ages with visual deficiencies.
Each participant will receive written materials prepared by the faculty.
