Abstract

This study examines the tactile education system for individuals with visual impairments, with a particular focus on the Indian context. It evaluates existing frameworks and resources for education, highlighting both advancements and gaps in tactile and sensory-based learning approaches. The analysis encompasses e-learning resources such as audiobooks and Braille displays, as well as government and nonprofit initiatives within the Indian education system. The challenges faced by visually impaired individuals in India are explored, including limited access to technology, socioeconomic barriers, and a shortage of trained educators. Through stakeholder interviews and a thorough literature review, the article proposes strategies to enhance educational experiences. These strategies emphasize the integration of advanced technologies, the formulation of inclusive policies, and the improvement of teacher training. The aim of this research is to inspire innovative ideas in tactile learning and to advance the dialogue on inclusive education.
