[Blindmath] Accessible statistics software

[Kristen Dabney]

Hi Russell,

I haven't used PSPP so I can't say anything about it's accessibility, but
JAWs does work with SPSS.
The only problem we ran into is that JAWs can't read the output images, so
the students have to turn in the entire output because they wouldn't know
if they deleted the graph they had intended to turn in.


Have a wonderful day,
Kristen
