We have developed learning material of acupuncture – acupoints and meridians – for the visually impaired. It utilizes ontology to construct the relations between the concepts in the acupuncture field and enables tactical understanding similarly as visual understanding. We used our learning material in the acupuncture lecture for the visually impaired, quantitatively analyzed its efficacy and compared the results with the group which did not used our material for learning. |
