CORRECTION OF MENTAL DEVELOPMENT OF CHILDREN WITH VISUAL IMPAIRMENTS

Abstract

Psychocorrective work is one of the important directions in the work of an educational institution in the process of forming socially adaptive forms of behavior of a visually impaired child. Correction helps a visually impaired child to master a single picture of the world and a coherent system of relationships, compensating to a certain extent the consequences of visual impairment. This is very necessary for self-realization and successful adaptation in the social environment. In individual remedial classes, tasks of a specific nature are solved, aimed at the development of visual functions in the correction of developmental defects in the child. The correction is built taking into account the interests of the child, the level of development of visual perception, cognitive activity, and practical skills. Gradually, each corrective technique is developed on different materials available to the child.
