  • How many contractions are in UEB braille?

    There are 180 contractions. For example, when the letter “b” (dots 1-2) stands by itself, it is the word “but.” Many contractions can be used as both whole words and part words.
  • What are the contractions in UEB?

    UEB has a much more relaxed view of contraction usage than EBAE.

    one-cell, whole-word contractions [alphabetic wordsigns]child, shall, this, which, out, still [strong wordsigns]be, was, were, his, enough [lower wordsigns]shortforms.
  • What are the different types of braille UEB?

    UEB supports two grades of braille: uncontracted braille (Grade I) and contracted braille (Grade II). Both grades employ a system of rules that allow precise interpretation of each braille character sequence.
  • Since the various braille alphabets originated as transcription codes for printed writing, the mappings (sets of character designations) vary from language to language, and even within one; in English Braille there are 3 levels of braille: uncontracted braille – a letter-by-letter transcription used for basic literacy;

Acknowledgements

I wish to express my sincere thanks and appreciation for the collegial input from Kathy Riessen from the South Australian School for Vision Impaired and Leona Holloway from Vision Australia in the finalisation of the Unified English Braille: Australian Training Manual 2013. I would further like to extend my thanks and appreciation to Colleen Flood from Vision Australia for her analytical and prescriptive proofreading comments , which have been gratefully received by the editorial team. As a small and dedicated team, we have tackled this major piece of work with rigour and commitment and examined and compared every element of the relevant documents, encompassing content, presentation and functionality. It has been a rewarding experience working with colleagues who are both knowledgeable and skilled in the Unified English Braille code. Kathy's expertise in "volunteering" to manage the file and relevant input/output has been unsurpassed and without such energy and dedication it is unlikely that we would be in a p osition to publish at this time. I would like to extend my gratitude to the relevant organisations, NSW Department of Education and Communities, the South Australian School for Vision Impaired and Vision Australia for enabling their staff the time to commit to the finalisation of the project. Finally I would also like to extend my thanks to the Australian Braille Authority (ABA) and the Round Table on Information Access for People with a Print Disability Inc. for their support and financial assistance with the teleconferences held by the editorial team, essential in ensuring the project remained on target. I am convinced that as a result of the publication of the

Unified English

Braille: Australian Training Manual

2013, Australia has a rich and exciting

professional learning tool that should enhance the knowledge and skills for new and established learners to braille.

Revised September 2016 - 7 - UEB Training Manual

Foreword

Unified English Braille:

Australian Training Manual

Unified English Braille (

UEB) was adopted for use by the Australian

Braille Authority (ABA) in May 2005; with an envisaged five year transition period. Since 2010, it has been Australia's only braille code in use. Following the adoption of UEB, our major braille producers commenced implementing the code almost immediately and an urgent need for teaching materials in the new, but still developing, braille code was created. Thus, the Unified English Braille Primer: Australian Edition followed shortly afterwards, with the Preliminary Edition in 2006 and an update in 2008. As time passed, the UEB code has been refined and the UEB rules are now articulated in The Rules of Unified English Braille: Second Edition 2013 ("The Rulebook" as it is commonly known). Some Rulebook language was different! New terminology was now in use! It became apparent that the recently released Braille Primer (Australian Edition) in its current form was no longer the best way of meeting the needs of braille learners.

Therefore, following release and care

ful study of this new Rulebook publication, what had started as a further update of the

Unified English

Braille Primer: Australian Edition

, has now resulted in a completely new document - the Unified English Braille: Australian Training Manual.

Those familiar with the

RNIB Braille Primer and the Unified English

Braille Primer: Australian Edition

will recognise the lesson structure and exercises from these. However, it became apparent that it was necessary to rewrite the lesson content in accordance with

The Rules of Unified English

Braill

e: Second Edition 2013.
Two main concepts which required a considerable rewrite were the rules for Lower Signs and Shortforms. The later lessons needed considerable alteration to both the order in which concepts are introduced, as well as thequotesdbs_dbs17.pdfusesText_23
