A concept of mobile technology for remotely supporting mathematical education of the blind

The paper presents a concept of mobile assistive technology enabling teachers to remotely support mathematical education of individual blind students or groups of blind students. Online teachers' support for blind students, who face obstacles to editing and reading mathematical formulae and figures, increases the efficiency of education process. The concept covers above all solutions for increasing the efficiency of synchronous, real-time math-related communication between sighted teacher and blind student who use different interfaces. Support is available regardless of teacher's and student's locations; it is provided via the Internet or otherwise, using local connections such as Wi-Fi or Bluetooth.
