摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a learning tool for visually challenged persons which is used for efficiently learning shapes and names of objects including an object whose actual body cannot be touched and an object whose whole shape cannot be grasped even if it can be touched.;SOLUTION: A visually challenged person touches with fingers a convex picture pattern portion 7 of a learning tool 1 for visually challenged persons to grasp a shape. Then, he/she touches a braille section 9 to recognize a name of the convex picture pattern portion 7, and grasps a shape of Hiragana by touching a convex character part 11 showing the name of the convex picture pattern portion 7. Thus, the visually challenged person can learn a shape indicated by the convex picture pattern portion 7, a name indicated by the object and a shape of each of characters indicated by the name at once by using the learning tool 1 for visually challenged persons. On the other hand, an able-bodied person can learn braille by looking at both the convex character part 11 and the braille section 9.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT
