VIDBE-Q 2025 Volume 70 Issue 4
Two open outputs support day‑to‑day implementation: (1) a Best‑Practice
Booklet (environmental setup, safety, low‑cost equipment, teaching method,
guiding methods, examples of adapted games and motor fairy tales) (MOVE AS
YOU ARE Consortium, 2024a); (2) a MOOC that presents practical video
demonstrations of the teaching and guiding methods described above, adds
sport‑specific units (athletics and swimming), and ends with a final quiz that helps
educators plan next steps (MOVE AS YOU ARE Consortium, n.d.).
All resources are available online in multiple languages; the Booklet is freely
downloadable.
Development of the project outputs triangulated research and guidelines,
established references such as Camp Abilities (Camp Abilities, n.d.) and Gross
Motor Development Curriculum for Children with Visual Impairments (Lieberman
& Haibach, 2016), and the partners' field experience—including Real Eyes Sport's
yearly sport camps (~80 participants) and ongoing multi‑city programs—so that
evidence could be translated into replicable procedures for schools and
rehabilitation settings.
A distinctive feature of MOVE AS YOU ARE is the focus on play and the
motor fairy tale. As described in the Booklet/MOOC, a motor fairy tale is a
sequence of short games tied together by a story that assigns roles, purposes, and
pacing. It supports inclusion because everyone pursues the same narrative goal
