The learner must therefore engage in multiple exploration in order to gain information comparable to that acquired by the sighted counterpart in a single viewing, if, either the quality or quantity of these manipulation is inadequate, the knowledge and the experience necessary for the learner’s successfully interaction with the reading text, may not be sufficient enough for reading a particular passage.
