visually impaired have limitation in the sense of sight and the process of
learning emphasises the sensory tools that other senses of hearing and touch
senses.

must be considered in providing instruction to individuals who are blind are
the medium used must be tactual and voiced, e.g.braille, writing is the use of
pictures objects arise, models and real objects. While the media voiced is the
tape recorder and the JAWS software. To help visually impaired activity in
their extraordinary school learn about orientation and mobility. Orientation
and mobility among the blind learn how knowing the place and direction as well
as how to use a white cane (visually impaired special sticks that are made of
aluminum)
2. Deaf
Individuals who are deaf has
hurdle in hearing both permanent and not permanent. Classification based on the
level of hearing loss deaf is: very mild hearing loss (27-40dB), mild hearing
loss (41-55dB), moderate hearing loss (56-70dB), severe hearing loss (71-90dB),
extreme hearing loss/Deafness (91dBabove).
Because it has barriers in
hearing deaf individuals have a hitch in the talks so that they are commonly
called speech delay. How to communicate with individuals using sign language,
for the finger alphabet has been patented internationally and to sign language

lightweight that has limitations in performing physical activity can still be
improved through therapy, moderate has limitations and motor coordination

of perception, brain injury, minimal brain dysfunction,developmental aphasia
and dislexia. individual learning difficulties has the IQ of the average or
above average, experience a disruption of motor, perceptual-motor impaired
coordination, impaired motion direction and orientation of the space and the
concept of developmental delay.
