| Research Abstract |
In the present study, in order to shed light on the contents of education and method for understanding disabilities, we conducted experimental study of the effect of experiment simulating impaired vision. Based on the results of the study, we could make a concrete suggestion about the contents and length of experiment simulating walking with impaired vision. In other words, in the experiment simulating walking with impaired vision where a blindfolded person would walk, it came to light that, around 30 minutes of walking on a less crowded flat ground without steps was most effective in understanding disabilities, while around 10 minutes of walking on crowded and uneven route resulted in maximum fear and discomfort.
