Abstract
This research focused on explore the digital environments used by visually impaired Turkish teacher candidates. The research was carried out in a qualitative phenomenology design. The participants of the study are two visually impaired students studying in the Department of Turkish Education. The data of the study were obtained from in-depth interviews with two visually impaired students. The findings obtained from the research were analysed by content analysis method. The data obtained from the student interviews were thematically coded. The findings of this research are as follows: visually impaired Turkish teacher candidates use digital media effectively in language teaching, digital environments facilitate the education process of students, screen readers are the most used digital media and help students in the learning process, digital and programs are mostly used in writing and listening language skills. It has been shown that Turkish education and digital resources in the field of education are insufficient, and that the computer is preferred more than the phone in using the media.
Keywords: visually impaired, assistive devices, digital environments, digital tools, Teaching Turkish.
