1.   Adebiyi B.A. (2010) Effectiveness of individualised instruction and peer tutoring in enhancing daily living skills of students with visual impairment. Journal of issues in Special Education 9 (1). (Nigeria)
This study investigated the effect of Individualized Instruction and Peer-Tutoring in enhancing daily living skills of students with visual impairment. The study adopted a pre-test, post-test experimental design. Participants for the study consisted of 48 students with visual impairment from Federal College of Education (Special), Oyo. These participants were randomly assigned into treatment groups having been initially screened to have challenges in activities of daily living. The findings revealed that there were significant differences in activities of daily living of participants exposed to individualized instruction, peer-tutoring and the control. Statistical difference existed between participants exposed to Individualized instruction and those treated with Peer-tutoring. Participants in the former scored significantly higher than the participants in the later. Based on the finding it was evidenced that both are potent techniques in enhancing better activities of daily living among students with visual impairment.
2.   Adebiyi, B.A. & Ajobiewe, A.I. (2012). Rational behavioural and self-efficacy techniques on enhancing attitude of regular classroom teachers to learners with visual impairment in South West, Nigeria (A research sponsored by TETFund)
The study focused on the schools where learners with visual impairment were educated alongside their sighted counterparts in Lagos, Owo, Abeokuta, Osogbo and Ogbomoso. The study adopted a pretest, post-test and control group design using a 3x2 factorial matrix. The result showed that there was no significant main effect of gender on attitude of participants.
