Abstract for the International Conference on Tactile Diagrams Maps and Pictures 2002

Developing a model of tactile graphics comprehension (workshop)

Frances Aldrich & Yvonne Hindle

University of Sussex, UK

This workshop is an opportunity to discuss in more depth the ideas for a model of tactile graphics comprehension we put forward in a paper entitled 'First steps towards a model of tactile graphicacy' in the May issue of the B.J.V.I., and which we also outlined in a short paper earlier in the conference programme. In these papers we raised a number of questions for debate which we will summarise for discussion in the workshop. We welcome ideas, suggestions and feedback on our model.
