CVI Course Information
TSBVI is proud to offer a self-paced online course to help team members better understand and more accurately complete Christine Roman’s CVI Range assessment.
The CVI Web Course consists of three case study simulations of conducting the CVI Range on real students.
Each module follows a similar structure:
- The case study student is presented
- Real-life parent interview answers for the student are discussed
- Review of videos of the student participating in their individual educational settings
- Review of videos of the student’s direct assessment
The students in the modules are presented because they have CVI Range scores that fall within each of the three phases of CVI identified by Dr. Roman:
- Phase I – Building Visual Behavior
- Phase II – Integrating Vision with Function
- Phase III – Refinement of CVI Characteristics
Participants will be provided with opportunities to simulate the evaluation of case study students using the CVI Range:
- Using observation sheets to record data gathered during the interview, evaluation, and direct assessment
- Following along by scoring a copy of the CVI Range book
- Comparing conclusions drawn from the case studies
- Reviewing intervention ideas for each of the students
Using the skills presented in this course will help professionals:
- Understand more about CVI
- Apply that knowledge to their specific students
- More confidently guide the student’s team to apply appropriate interventions for each interfering CVI characteristic across the school day as well as in the home
CVI Scenarios Phase I – Case Study 3: Isaiah
In Phase I Case Study 1: Isaiah, the goal is building visual behavior. This means that a child is beginning to become aware of visual targets in controlled environments. In this case study, we meet a boy who is just barely starting to use his vision. These visual behaviors are subtle and require keen observation skills. This module will help participants begin to hone those skills.

CVI Scenarios Phase II – Case Study 2: Eli R.
(Please see description for CVI Scenarios-Phase I for full course descriptions)
In Phase II Case Study 2: Eli R., the goal is integrating vision with function. This means the child is beginning to be able to use their vision while at the same time using their other senses, such as tactile and auditory. In this case study, we follow a young man at the beginning of this integration, which may be considered early Phase II.

CVI Scenarios Phase III – Case Study 3: Eli H.
(Please see description for CVI Scenarios-Phase I for full course descriptions)
In Phase III Case Study 3: Eli H., the goal is the refinement of the CVI Characteristics. This means the child uses their vision throughout the day but is still not able to perceive or understand all of the visual details of the world. In this phase, we see the social ramifications of difficulties with identifying faces, facial expressions, and non-verbal social communication. In this case study, we follow a young man in early Phase III.
