Subject: [BlindMath] Webinar invitation: Unlocking Digital Math for VI Students with LaTeX

Join us on July 29, 2026 at 12pm PT for an interactive webinar about accessible digital math! TVIs play a critical role in equipping blind and visually impaired students for success in advanced math classes, which are a gateway to rewarding STEM careers. This webinar will introduce a little-known digital code used for math textbooks called LaTeX. This code is easy to learn, accessible, and endorsed by blind STEM experts.

What You'll Learn:

   -

   How LaTeX math complements braille skills and can increase accessibility
   in college for students.
   -

   Practical, hands-on activities and resources to support teaching using a
   free website built for TVIs to explore LaTeX math called Access Digi Math
   <https://accessuci.ics.uci.edu/digimath/>!

Date and Time: July 29, 2026 at 12pm PT

Registration: Register for the Webinar
