One possibility would be using MathHear: https://www.gh-accessibility.com/software/mathhear
There's a free 30-day demo available if you want to try it out.

Another possibility is ChattyInfty: http://www.sciaccess.net/en/ChattyInfty/

Just a couple of tools to add to your list for investigation.

Subject: [Blindmath] Ways to create math solutions for sighted instructors

Hi everyone,

We are supporting a student who is blind and taking Math 099. We are trying to figure out a way for the student to complete assignments and print them out in a format that a sighted instructor is able to read and comprehend. The student will be working on things like quadratic equations.

The student does use nemeth. He has a BrailleNote Apex QT. The problem with printing from the Apex is that things like superscript, subscript, fractions, etc. are written out as (superscript) 2 (endscript), (subscript) 2 (endscript) (open frac) 1Over 2 (close frac) etc.

Is there a method of working with math for the blind that will allow the material to be exported to a format that is easy to understand for sighted instructors?

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Russell
