Vision Studies Director Participates in Developing EU Curriculum
Dr. Laura Bozeman, SGISD chair and director of Vision Studies, recently took part in a project to develop professional standards for visual disabilities rehabilitators across the European Union. The oMERO project aims to close skills gaps and create a new curriculum that can be used to train specialists in providing physical, mental, and sensorial rehabilitation services.
During the oMERO final event in Genoa, Italy, Dr. Bozeman presented on takeaways from international training efforts, emphasizing the importance of tailoring professional development to individual needs. “We need to look at the culture and needs and supports that are available in different areas and see how we can help support that, not take it over,” Dr. Bozeman said.
Watch Dr. Bozeman’s presentation on the oMERO project website as well as several other discussions from the final event!

me trying to explain to you why crewel fucking me Infront of his class would help the students improve in said classes 🥺
They have to learn female anatomy somehow, and the textbooks' diagrams are all so old and outdated. Besides, with such a diverse student body (all male), the female human body is such a strange concept. And who better to act as a hands-on learning tool than the only girl in the school!!!! <3 maybe doing this will help raise your grade so you and Grim won't have to struggle to get by, or it's yet another scummy tactic employed by Crowley. ^^;;; since you both share grades, you're working so hard to stay afloat every time Grim manages to fail an exam. T_T your desperation is a boon for the entire class during the anatomy/sex education units.
Also,,, anatomy and sex education class with you as live demonstration is one of the few times everyone's paying attention. Attendance is 100%! No one wants to miss the opportunity to see this.
