" -J J j and Mrs. Ruth H. Craig of BYU's Institute of Special Education is being conducted by non-braille reader Dr. Vearle McBride, professor pro-fessor of education at Cluver-Stockton Cluver-Stockton College, Canton, Mo. Among the 20 participants in the two-week workshop are blind and sighted instructors in braille as well as representatives of state agencies for the visually handicapped, and Carl Rodgers, education specialist in braille with the AmericanFoundationfor the Blind, New York City. Apart from Mr. Rodgers, the other workshop participants are from New Mexico, California, Idaho, Illinois, Pennsylvania, Long Island, N.Y., Iowa Michigan, Virginia and Utah. The workshop is conducted . each morning for four hours with the remainder of the day being spent on tours of local areas of interest and a great deal of rapid reading practice. The 'program that Mr. Rodgers Rod-gers referred to is one developed by Dr. McBride. Self-taught in speed reading, he has instructed instruc-ted some 250 sighted students. As an experiment he workedwith a blind Culver-Stockton College student, Nancy Steinhouser, who increased her reading in braille from 150 words per minute to 2,800 to 3,300 wpm with "just about complete comprehension, compre-hension, and 4,300 wpm with "enjoying comprehension. "I'm not suggesting that all blind people are able to read at that rate, explains Dr. McBride, "any more than I would suggest that all sighted people could read at the same rate. It is a very individual accomplishment. But if we were able to increase the reading rate of a blind person by doubling or tripling his rate, then I think we will be performing a great service. Although there are no exact figures, blind people on the average aver-age read between 99 and 110 words per minute while sighted people read approximately 250 words per minute. Under Dr.McBride's program, he teaches the basic skills in rapid reading but lets the students stu-dents develop their own methods. Sighted readers may speed read by rapidly moving their fingers across a line of type, or down the center of the page, or in a swirling motion down the page. The position of the book can also affect one's speed as workshop work-shop participants have discovered. discov-ered. Starting with the conventional conven-tional braille reading position of the book squarely in front of them, the readers are now individually in-dividually experimenting with their books tilted towards them or away from them, at lap level or angled diagonally. Dr. McB ride's sighted readers have demonstrated that they can successfully, and with comprehension, com-prehension, read a book by flipping flip-ping through the pages at a rate of 50,000 words per minute. I know that sounds impossible, he says, "but it can and is being done.
