    Workshop at the ‘Getting in Touch with Literacy’ Conference, November 30th, St. Pete Beach, Florida, USA

    Annemiek van Leendert will be leading a workshop on the TouchingMaths+ project. The workshop will focus on the significance of using verbal descriptions to make graphs more accessible. Participants will have the opportunity to engage with the challenges involved in creating meaningful descriptions. Additionally, Annemiek will introduce new learning resources, such as movable axes and alternative tactile representations of coordinate systems. She is eager to receive feedback, especially from Braille readers.
