[BlindMath] Accessible math Content

[Sina Bahram]

If you use MathML, then both Jaws and NVDA have support for aural navigation
in addition to Nemeth output. The NVDA solution relies on MathPlayer, which
in my biased opinion, though unofficially confirmed by dozens of others
including devs at VFO, is a far superior experience when exploring
mathematics. You can then also enable MathJax's experimental SRE
implementation if you want yet another exploration methodology.

Full disclosure, I co-designed MathPlayer's entire exploration approach for
mathematics with the incredible Neil Soiffer.

Hope that helps

Subject: [BlindMath] Accessible math Content

               Greetings Federation Family,
               At work, I am working on a project right now, to ensure equal
access for *all* people to our math content. We are an entirely online
university. We have fairly consistent results rendering our math content
into accessible electronic braille, but we are looking for a solution for
those users who may not be braille readers or who are not strong braille
users. Although we could provide readers (and have in the past), we would
like to discover a consistent, accessible solution to allow screen readers
to interpret and properly convey content of math equations to our students.
Doing lots of research, I have found a lot of conflicting information, and I
thought who better to ask than my federation family. Any suggestions would
be highly valued!
               As I understand it, the issue here seems to consistently be
both user agent related or assistive technology related (inclusive
disjunction, here).
Respectfully,
michael
