Product features
Using the braille Science code is designed for non-braille specialists and contains examples of most of the common units and chemical symbols found in the Key Stage 3, Key stage 4, AS and A2 curricula.
The examples are not meant to be exhaustive but should act as a guide to solving the common problems which occur when transcribing Science notation into braille. There is also a section for those wishing to transcribe the notation found in Genetics.
It is intended for use by educational professionals involved with the teaching of Science to secondary school children who use braille as their main medium for communication. Based on the braille code used in the UK for transcribing from print text into braille, it includes advice about transcription issues and covers the code required up to A level.
