The antithesis is that Blindness is a restriction factor to this process. And the synthesis is that the Orientation Game: " Treasure Hunt" (JO: CT) favors this construction, due to being a new Educational Technology (TE), which is at the service of solving the problem of the OM process of children and adolescents Blind, as well as involve mediation, media and publishing. Thus, the objective of this study was to analyze the effects that a Orientation Game program: "Treasure Hunt" entails the development of the Self-concept and the Locomotion of two blind children and two adolescents attended at the Brazilian Center for Rehabilitation and Support for the Visually Impaired Of Goiás (CEBRAV/CAP), to give them greater autonomy and independence. The method used was a quasi-experimental research design, which has the subject as its own control, to favor the construction of the Self-concept and the Locomotion of two children and two blind adolescents, aged between eight and thirteen years, using the Orientation Game : "Treasure Hunt", in which the student must make a course in an unknown area, marked by circles, having in hand a special letter of adapted orientation and a cane, as shown in the figure below. - Exit: Reception P1 - Secretary Glass door P2 - Kitchen P3 - AVAS Room P4 - Drinking Fountain P5 - Gate Sports Court - Arrival Figure 01: Adapted Guidance Special Letter Source: FARIAS (2000). The evaluation of Self-Conception and Locomotion was performed by two observers, one permanent and the other sporadic, who established the degree of agreement between them, during the Baseline, Intervention and Follow-Up phases. The results show an improvement of the Self-concept and the Locomotion of two children and two blind adolescents in the categories of Competence, Personal Value, Autonomy, Independence and Lifestyle.
