Additionally, the Scholar is outdated technology. But then so is the BN
to some extent.

Amber,
Braille Scolars are available through Quota Funds at no charge for the
school. They are fine but they don't offer a tactual Braille display
like the BrailleNotes do. I would go ahead and let them get the scolar
but start telling them that she needs the BrailleNote because your
daughter needs the braille display for editing. Scolars only have
auditory feedback. When I was a TVI - I would start the BrailleNotes
with students in the THIRD grade.

Hello everyone. I was wondering, Is a braille speak and scholar a good
choice for a second grader who has little technology experience? They
are getting her one soon. Is there something else that would be more
appropriate for her? Thanks
