DEAR FRIENDS,
We continue the series of webinars held in cooperation with the Republican Pedagogical-Psychological Center and Perkins School for the Blind organization.
The topic of our next webinar is “HOW DOES MY CHILD SEE.”
Speaker: Snježana Seitz, expert from the “Perkins International” organization.
Vision is the primary source of information through which children learn about the world around them, perceive details and space, form their first relationships and connections with their parents and immediate environment, as well as differentiate spatial concepts. Vision also plays a crucial role in the later development of social-emotional, cognitive, and motor skills.
The Webinar will focus on the decisive factors of good vision of children and the importance of functional vision. The Webinar will also address the prerequisites for developing good vision, as well as the impact of vision on other areas of development, and the importance of early risk identification.
The Webinar will take place on May 31, 2025, at 8:00 p.m..
