QPVI stands for "Quality Programs for Students with Visual Impairments". We promote issues of quality in educational programs for students who are blind or visually impaired, including students with multiple disabilities and deaf-blindness. Learn more at qpvi.com. Briefly, QPVI is a process for accountability and continuous improvement in public and special school programs that is staff-driven, collaborative, and guided by a specially trained outside facilitator. Since its inception, as a process for public schools in Texas, its use was expanded first to other states, then to schools for the blind, or special schools, and then to college coursework for teachers in training. QPVI reaches a variety of audiences for a variety of reasons: For teachers of students with visual impairments, whether in a public school or a special school, our website provides information to enable you to consider whether QPVI might be an approach to benefit your program and students. For administrators, especially those directly responsible for supervising VI programs, the site provides information comparing QPVI with other program improvement options and how to get started. For teachers-in-training, QPVI offers a systematic way to approach and learn some of the basic but critical knowledge that forms the foundation of effective practice in this field. And, for students, well.... all our interest and energy is aimed at improving outcomes for students... that is our bottom line. .....
