Teaching and Learning the Sendero GPS

A Training Guide, for Version 3.5

The Sendero GPS is an extraordinary suite of technology that allows people who are blind or visually impaired to harness the power of the Global Positioning System (GPS). Its electronic street maps, route creation, and route following capabilities give the user access to timely and accurate orientation and location information all over the world.

Teaching and Learning the Sendero GPS will help assistive technology trainers and mobility instructors who need to train their students, parents who want to teach their children, and individuals who want to teach themselves.

Using plain English, this training guide covers:

• Automatically announcing the name of the current street and closest intersection, nearby points of interest and nearest address
• Creating and following vehicle and pedestrian routes and announcing that the destination is on the right or left side of the street
• Searching for points of interest among 50 categories, such as restaurants, food stores, bus and train stations and ATMs
• Exploring the local neighborhood or any neighborhood in countries where maps are available, from the comfort of an easy chair

Teaching and Learning the Sendero GPS Personal Version is available in Print, Braille and DAISY formats for $129.00. Site Licenses are available for $299.00 and include digital and DAISY versions for trainers who will be using the Training Guide to train multiple students.
