[BlindMath] Current strategies regarding accessible mathematics

Hello David,

I am a blind college student. I agree with what has been said. In my
experiences as a Jaws user, having a Word document with Math ML content is
good. This allows the user to type in their work below each question. HTML
files can have accessible math, but in my experience, few people do it
right. Many science and engineering professors know LaTeX. I use this code
to type my math work. 

Best,
Nick

I'm hoping to dig into the expertise on the list regarding what you do to
ensure math is accessible to blind students, and current techniques to
accessibly read mathematics with screen readers.

 

To explain:

*	I'd like to ensure our professors know how to produce accessible
documents with mathematics in them
*	And be able to show others how to read "accessible" mathematics
documents with screen readers

 

Thanks for your help!

David
