20240708 1300 Brick by Brick-Learning Through Lego Originally Broadcasted July 8, 2024, on ACB Media Zoom Recorder Legos aren't just a toy. They can teach blind people to be better rock climbers, how to write music, and how to read in braille. Not only that, but blind people can now build Lego sets on their own using text-based instructions from Bricks For the Blind. Participants joined Matthew Shifrin, founder of Bricks For the Blind, and explored how Lego can help you to be a better teacher and learn more about the world around you. And there were free Lego sets! Presenter: Matthew Shifrin, Founder, Bricks for the Blind, Boston, MA Co-sponsored by: AABT, ACBF and FIA Edited By: Darcy Burnard
