[Blindmath] MyMathLab

Hello,
I am currently in my second Algebra class using My Math Lab.  As far as the 
actual equations go, they read fairly well with JAWS 12.  The problem is 
that, unless the question is a simple multiple choice, there is no way to 
put an answer in.  The edit fields are not seen by JAWS12.  I have also run 
into problems where you need to look at a graph or other picture to get the 
info needed to complete a problem.  Graphing problems are also mostly 
inaccessible.  You can usually get the needed equation to do the problem but 
there is no accessible way to input a graph.  You will definently need a 
human reader to input your answers.
