Antibullying Program

When the San Diego Unified School District implemented an antibullying program in response to reports of bullying of Muslim students, a group of citizens complained that the program constituted an unconstitutional promotion of one religion. Julie Underwood discusses the resulting case, Citizens for Quality Education v. Barrera (S.D. Cal 2018) and explains what it teaches educators about the appropriate responses to religion-based bullying.

Describes how the San Diego Unified School District implemented and evaluated the use of cassette braille. Preliminary data indicate that! students using cassette braille were able to read and write at a faster rate than when they used paper braille. The equipment (VersaBraille) was found to operate quietly and easily, and to facilitate the storage, editing, retrieval, and interpretation of information. Users found the equipment to be easier to operate than the mechanical brailler. Limited amounts of available recorded material, initial cost, sensitivity to breakage, and weight might be considered problem areas with the VersaBraille system. Users (students, teachers, braille typists) rated the system positively, and maintained their interest in continuing to work with the equipment.
