While the initiative of the Venu Institute is highly commendable, surely we are just scratching the surface here, when it comes to programming becoming a recognised and sought after profession by the blind.
How hard would it be, to take these courses online, so that far more people could attend? Online classrooms exist, where recording is easily possible, so training institutes can easily make electronic copies of the lectures, enhancing their libraries. What is the experience of blind people with online education? Is the transition from face-to-face to online an easier one for blind people, for whom the difference between having the teacher in the room and not, should be less? Would there be interest in a weekly skillshare kind of online gathering, where we collect what people want to learn, and what people are willing to teach, and try to match the two?
