[Blindmath] accessible Statistical software with Macs?

[Godfrey, Jonathan]

Hi all,

Nina has found the pages I look after. I can tell it was recent as the whole site has just moved server and now uses the https protocol not he older http.

Updating material on the pages has become even easier than I'd made it before. It seems many of my colleagues at Massey wanted things to get simpler to have control over. I'm able to put more material on the site, and because I'm using markdown to generate the content I'm dredging up old material that wasn't accessible in its final form (pdf for my sighted students) and converting to accessible html, including the mathematical content. This has proven fairly easy so far, but I am still ironing out some crinkles.

I do need some users of VoiceOver and ORCA screen readers to look over some of the content for me please. Volunteers could contact me off-list a.j.godfrey at massey.ac.nz

Cheers,
Jonathan

Hello,

I recently found this resource for R for blind users that seems useful. I’m taking some stats courses myself in a short time, but thought I wanted to share in case it hasn’t been posted here before:

Best,
Nina
