Inside this book are reflections on the nature of vision and
blindness. Further, there are explorations of interpretive
research, and presentations of some seminal and contemporary
publications in the field of blindness. The other major fodder for
conversation with you the reader is an elaborated example of
empirical research entitled Blind Online Learners. Each element of
this inquiry is explicitly reflected upon as an example of
interpretive research. This book is intended for four intersecting
groups of readers. If you are a philosopher, closet or sanctioned,
then you cannot ponder the nature of being without due
consideration for vision, and cannot contemplate the role of seeing
in our lives without listening to the stories of those who are
blind. The tales within this text are particularly contemporaneous
because they are contextualized by the cyber-phenomena of online
learning. This segues to the second group of readers, as the
described empirical research was originally intended to bring
greater depth and breadth of understanding to the field of
educational technology, particularly as it intersects with
disability studies. There is a paucity of published literature that
has inquired into disabled online learners, and this research study
responds to that call. Third, this book may be used as a textbook
on approaches to interpretive empirical research. It is as close as
one may come to a recipe, walking students through a specific
example. Because it is situated in actual empirical research, the
intention was that it avoid the trap of being prescriptive or
formulaic. Finally, the text is intended for readers interested in
the field of blindness. The text reviews some of the seminal and
contemporary research on blindness, and then presents an elaborated
example of what we can and should expect to emerge in the knowledge
production industry, changing what it means to be blind.
