[BlindMath] I need some ideas and encouragement for doing braille calculus

Sat Sep 21 02:12:57 UTC 2019

I am wondering the same thing. It sounds good, but stem is often not the first thing that takes priority with these types of devices, which is understandable in some cases.

> I understand the processes,  but I am having trouble staying organized while working problems in braille. I use a braille notetaker with 32 cells, and I am having trouble with things like the chain rule that require lines and lines of equations. The actual line on my braille sense is not long enough to accommodate some of my equations, and I get flustered and lost scrolling between so many lines. Ho do those of you who are braille users stay organized? Do you have any strategies for keeping parts of the same problem organized? I am not opposed to breaking out the Perkins Brailler with wide paper, but I am also wondering if there is anything else I can do to be successful. I have a great instructor who always goes step by step and doesn't mind repeating things, but I always get lost about half way through big problems.
