SHARE Share on Twitter Share on Facebook Share on LinkedIn Share on Pinterest Welcome to Learning and Teaching the Nemeth Code within UEB Contexts: A Step-by-Step Guide written by Tina Herzberg, Susan Osterhaus, Sara Larkin, and L. Penny Rosenblum. The book is available in print and braille using the links below. Each of the 8 chapters contains: ● INTRODUCTION TO NEW NEMETH SYMBOLS: Each chapter begins by introducing Nemeth symbols included in the chapter. ● PRACTICE ACTIVITIES: There are reading and writing activities to complete as new Nemeth Code symbols are introduced. Answer keys for the practice activities are provided at the end of the chapter. ● TEACHING TIPS: Throughout the book, we provide strategies on how to teach the Nemeth Code symbols to students. ● CHAPTER SUMMARY: Each chapter contains a summary of key points about the math topics covered in the chapter and the rules about how to transcribe the symbols for Nemeth Code within UEB Contexts. The book is systematic, moving from PK-1st grade through Algebra and Geometry. There are appendices titled Greek Letters, Biology, Chemistry, Periodic Table, Physics, and Metric System. A note for braille readers: For Chapters 2 and 7, there are files that include the tactile graphics which are shown in the respective chapters. There are three options for producing the graphics: using a PIAF, a Tiger embosser, or a braille embosser. If you use a braille embosser, you will need to add components, using the collage method. The blank page in the chapter will need to be replaced with the braille graphic page you produce. The authors wish to thank Michael Cantino, a certified braille transcriber who specializes in creating accessible materials for complex subject matter, including art, STEM, and wayfinding. Michael’s attention to detail in preparing the braille files for the book is greatly appreciated. Please contact Dr. Tina Herzberg at [email protected] if you have any questions.
