[BlindMath] Workshop on Accessible Mathematics For Blind High-School and College Students

[Sean Loraas]

I am interested in your workshop on Accessible Math. I am the Accessibility
Technician at the 7th largest Community College in the country and create a
large volume of accessible math content for a wide variety of math & other STEM
technical notation for college level courses algebra up through Calculus 4,
developmental math and adult education. I am interested in improving my
knowledge, tools and workflows to maximize the practical usability of alt
formats for our students that run the gamut from newer than novice to
master level in terms of screen reader use, tech savvy, and braille use.  So
the more diverse my tool box is the better equipped I am to serve them. I
would love to share the latest tech tools we use and would be wildly
interested in what my peers are using, as peers are few and far between in
our field. I commend you for your creativity in attempting to lure
accessible math materials specialists out of our dark offices to share the
crazy tools that support our unconventional skill set. Limitless
possibilities.

Let me know what I can do to reserve a seat at that table? Thank you for
developing such a fantastic opportunity and sharing it in this forum. Stay
safe!
