In November 2021, a team of 28 professionals, guided by a steering
committee of four researchers, held a conference to create the first guiding
document on Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM)
Education for students with visual impairments and blindness. The agenda
document contains twelve goals identified as the most immediate and pressing for
the field. Each goal is supported with recommended strategies for meeting the
goal, research recommendations and development recommendations. The agenda
document is intended for guidance for future research and development to create a
more inclusive and accessible STEM education for students with visual
impairments for years to come.
