[Blindmath] Accessible display format for matrices

[Ken Perry]

I don't know if these books would help but I found them on Learning ally and
they are recorded.  They had seven books with vector in the title but they
were all calculus based.  Do you have books picked out we could see if they
are in accessible form.  Also in some of my classes I have wrote the
publisher and they have actually sent me word or word perfect formatted text
of them.  For example I got my Linux programming books this way.

Discrete mathematics mathematical reasoning and proof with puzzles patterns
and games
Kinematics and dynamics of machinery
Linear algebra and matrix theory

Subject: [Blindmath] Accessible display format for matrices

I will be teaching the following course for the first time in the Spring
2012 semester.

GAME 2302 - Mathematical Applications for Game Development (3-3-1) Presents
applications of mathematics and science in game and simulation programming.
Includes the utilization of matrix and vector operations, kinematics, and
Newtonian principles in games and simulations. Also covers code
optimization.

The course must be accessible for blind and VI students. Even if there are
accessible textbooks at the college level covering these topics (which I
doubt) it is far too late to adopt a new textbook for the course.

I really need suggestions from those who teach mathematics and blind
students who study mathematics regarding the most accessible formats for
presenting matrix equations.

If special reader software is required (beyond a standard screen reader), I
need to know that also.

Thanks in advance.
Dick Baldwin
