[blindlaw] re presentations - notes

[Paul Harpur]

I lecture at university and I use a laptop with some notes on it and have a
headphone in.  
I know one prof who is blind uses braille notes.
Another at conferences has his wife read his speech onto tape and just
repeats it while listening.  I tried that a few time with speeches at home
but I found it was very hard to have emotions etc.  For conferences I just
memorize the speech.  it is harder but looks very impressive.
Oh, a lawyer I know uses braille for some court work but needs a laptop for
making notes for cross examination.

I use braille on index cards.  I have also seen others use a small note
taker, 18 braille cells.

Hi all,

I wondered if anyone here could suggest a helpful method of making speaking
notes, for use in presentations. Is braille the best way, or do others have
other suggestions?

I do not think laptop notes would be suitable as queues.

Your help on this would be great.

Ger
