Section2Resources for Students

[Suggestion: Here we have an overview of

  • how a screen reader works
  • what is Nemeth braille? Refreshable braille devices

The idea could be to present, for example, a student with the two ways that mathematics is read. Here the point could possibly also be made that one might have to change the settings in the screen reader. This could also discuss different operating systems?]

BlindMath

blindmath@nfbnet.org is a place where interested persons can discuss all issues related to blindness and math. Topics for discussion include (but are not limited to) sources for accessible texts, information about tactile and auditory graphing programs, suggestions for insuring that math lectures are accessible to blind students, and strategies used by blind math instructors. Anyone with an interest in this topic is free to join this group and contribute to the discussions.
