ICEVI –The Nippon Foundation Mathematics Project

One of the concerns of the partners implementing the Nippon Foundation-supported higher education program was that not many students graduating from the school system were successfully enrolling in higher education. One of the significant reasons identified was the limited teacher training in mathematics instruction for students with visual impairment. The resultant lack of confidence and skills of teachers was directly impacting on the students’ access and achievement in mathematics in schools. ICEVI recognized this gap in teacher knowledge and developed a publication titled “Mathematics Made Easy for blind children” in 2005-06 in collaboration with the Overbrook Nippon Network on Educational Technology (ONNET). This publication is available on ICEVI website for free download. The Nippon Foundation came forward to support ICEVI to develop video instructional materials to improve the expertise of teachers to teach mathematics effectively to visually impaired students. The CEO of ICEVI, Dr. M.N.G. Mani, is heading this initiative as his expertise is in the area of Mathematics.

The first set of concept videos were piloted in a workshop in South Africa in 2018 involving teachers of mathematics, teacher educators, and teachers who are visually impaired. The participants worked through the concepts and instructions presented in each of the sample videos, and successfully understood methods of teaching mathematics. The project had a target of preparing at least 100 instructional videos every year on various topics of primary, secondary and senior secondary mathematics. ICEVI has established a dedicated YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/c/ICEVIMathMadeEasy/ playlists which has 475 instructional videos on teaching concepts in mathematics, including teaching the abacus. ICEVI is pleased to advise that there are currently 3800+ subscribers and the rate of subscription is steadily increasing. The viewership of the instructional videos is also more than 400,000. ICEVI has initiated the process of preparing another 100 demonstration videos on mathematics concepts by teachers from the Philippines and Indonesia in 2023.

ICEVI believes that these open access, online instructional videos are a quality resource for individuals with visual impairments, parents and teachers, and promote children learning and enjoying mathematics.
