Abstract
This article reports the results of an analysis of questionnaires admi nistered to partially sighted children and their parents. The aim of t he study was to identify the visual environmental adaptation problems (VEAPs) of children who attend regular classrooms but have support fro m teachers of visually impaired students. In addition to discussing th e VEAPs that were found in various areas, the article offers suggestio ns for adaptive techniques and materials that will help these children function more effectively.
