[blindlaw] Two-tier Diagrams for the LSAT

[Sexton, bruce]

My question for the list is, how do you efficiently switch between the
elements like the rules, main diagram, sub diagrams,, answer choices etc. of
the game while using excel.

Hello:

     If sighted people have a diagram to look at when taking a test, then
blind test takers need to be provided tactile diagrams. You also need to
know if the diagram is a true diagram or is it a perspective view of three
dimensional objects. Suppose that you have a jigsaw puzzle. A diagram could
be made showing the outline of each piece. It would then be possible to
define how the puzzle would go together. If the diagram is of three
dimensional parts, then the diagram will appear to the blind reader totally
different than it will to a sighted reader. 
There is essentially no way to describe a diagram using text. Hope this
makes sense.
Regards,

Robert

Anyone have any tips on doing two-tier diagrams for logic games either on
the BrailleNote or Excel? What I'm having trouble doing (conceptually, more
or less) is extrapolating-for example-places where certain objects cannot be
in the case of order puzzles.  
This is definitely the hardest section of the test for me.
