Publication Access status: Open Access , Astronomie für Blinde und Sehbehinderte : Legitimation – Konzepte – Modelle – Materialien(2015)This dissertation will discuss the question of the opportunities to make astronomical education accessible for blind and visually impaired people. It will be shown that astronomical contents are from enormous significance for the society. They hold great potentials for educational purposes too. Therefor there should be corresponding offers for blind and visually impaired people. The identification of particularly significant contents will be done by analysing the curriculum. The intersection of 7 curricula will be determined. The obtained sample of contents forms the foundation for the development of astronomical models. Specific properties of different senses will be composed to find ways of impartation reaching beyond the tactile sense. The use of different senses should improve the connotation of phenomena and models. With regard of teaching methodology and didactics for blind and visually impaired, the obtained results will be united by the development of astronomical models. It will be exemplarily shown, how to make use of the tactile and aural sense and even the sensation of heat. All models are accompanied by further material in the form of explanations and tactile graphics.Source Type:Doctoral Thesis818 1089
