[BlindMath] Math with jaws

[Kendra Schaber school account]

Hi all! 
Regarding the JAWS, if you're using a braille display, everything has to be
set to the less favored computer braille, even if you normally use UEB with
Desmos. I don't know if that's the same for other websites, though for the
tutorials I found for UEB math and Nemeth, you don't have to use computer
braille, but you should always experiment. I don't know of any app for
Nemeth translation for Apple or Idevice users, but Voice Over can read Math
Ml content to some degree and under settings, you can turn on Nemeth mode or
allow Nemeth Braille, something like that if you use a braille display.

Hi Sukriti,
To my knowledge, not really. There are some websites that will accept Nemeth
input (Desmos, Nemeth tutorial sites... that's about it), and that can be
done on Mac or on Windows. Entering Nemeth on those sites is not very
flexible, and it can be a challenge to convert the Nemeth entry back into
print (if that is even an option). With JAWS, the Nemeth entry is
immediately converted into print, and braille readers can read the proper
Nemeth notation on their braille display when reviewing the print notation
within the Word document.

I don't know of any Mac apps that support Nemeth entry. VoiceOver can read
MathML content effectively, but I've encountered some gaps. Similarly,
VoiceOver's translation of MathML content into Nemeth (via VoiceOver) is not
as reliable as the translation provided by JAWS.
