Abstract
Studies were conducted comparing learning achieved by blind students at different grade levels for 3 types of material presented at normal and compressed rates under conditions of active and passive listening. Findings of the research lend support to the theory that active participation in the listening process results in greater learning. A secondary finding was that comprehension of uncompressed material was superior to comprehension of compressed material under conditions of motivation.
