Marco<p>Für mich bedeutet die Brailleschrift dasselbe wie für Sehende die Handschrift bzw. das Schreiben mit der Hand. Wenn ich früher auf einer Blindenschriftmaschine oder heute in Braille auf einer entsprechenden Zeile oder dem Bildschirm des iPhone schreibe, hat das für mich eine viel privatere Bedeutung als das Schreiben mit einer Computertastatur. Das bemerke ich immer wieder. <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/Braille" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Braille</span></a> <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/BrailleLiteracy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BrailleLiteracy</span></a></p>

Lanie Carmelo<p>Old habits die hard! Working on lesson 12 drills for my Braille proofreading course, and my brain keeps insisting "6-can" should be read as "6-3". After years of reading English Braille American Edition (EBAE), the transition to Unified English Braille (UEB) still trips me up sometimes. Had to double-check the drill answers to make sure I wasn't going crazy. Anyone else find themselves occasionally slipping back into old Braille conventions? <a href="https://tweesecake.social/tags/Braille" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Braille</span></a> <a href="https://tweesecake.social/tags/UEB" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>UEB</span></a> <a href="https://tweesecake.social/tags/EBAE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>EBAE</span></a> <a href="https://tweesecake.social/tags/BrailleLiteracy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BrailleLiteracy</span></a> <a href="https://tweesecake.social/tags/blind" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>blind</span></a> <a href="https://tweesecake.social/tags/BrailleProofreading" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BrailleProofreading</span></a></p>

Asia Quinones-Evans<p>Maybe this is not an accomplishment for too many people but I was very excited today to finish the book green eggs and ham by Dr. Seuss in only 45 minutes. It definitely tells me that my braille skills are improving and it makes me feel more confident about my skills. Definitely not to the point of reading school related items but maybe getting to the point of reading books for pleasure. <a href="https://mastodon.stickbear.me/tags/BrailleLiteracy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BrailleLiteracy</span></a></p>
