[BlindMath] Computation Theory graphs?

It depends on what kinds of graphs.

For example:

For drawing a Venn diagram or flow chart, they might use an APH Draftsman
(available free with federal quota monies for K-12) or an EASY sketchpad
(less expensive than a Draftsman if paying real money as a 12+ student),
along with a stylus, compass, stencils, etc.

For creating a graph on a coordinate plane, a student could use an APH
Graphic Aid for Mathematics (rubber graph board) with push pins, rubber
bands, etc.; raised line graph paper with Wikki Stix, high dots, etc.;
Talking Graphing Calculator from Desmos (ask to play with their accessible
one with audio and braille),  Audio Graphing Calculator from ViewPlus;
Orion TI-84+ Talking Graphing Calculator from APH.

Subject: [BlindMath] Computation Theory graphs?

Hello all,

I am an assistive technology specialist trying to trouble shoot a way to
support graphing for Computation Theory. While I can emboss the graphs, I
need to find a way for blind students to also create the graphs. What ways
have people found that worked for them? Any guidance would be wonderful.
Thank you for your time.

Have a wonderful day,
Kristen
