Juanita,
I did all my math homework on my BrailleNote in high school and it worked
out perfectly! I'm currently taking a summer course in Stats at UC Davis,
and I'm using my BrailleNote Apex for that as well. Hope this helps, and you
know you're always welcome to contact me off list.
Best, Hannah

Juanita,

My name is Hoby Wedler and I received a minor in mathematics as an
undergraduate student.
You can learn LaTec as Brandon says but it's a steep learning curve. I
honestly may not advise spending your time on this if you don't plan to
pursue a career in math/science.
I used a reader/scribe a lot. I feel that this is a fine place to ask for
help and have it be efficient.
Since I knew that I could do it independently using LaTec if I had to, I
felt comfortable asking for help.

Please feel free to contact me anytime off-list regarding this.

Best,
-- Hoby

Hello List,
My name is Juanita, and I have been in college for about a year and a half.
However, this is my first semester in which I have taken a math class. Math
has never been my favorite subject. I've always dreaded it. Despite my fear
of it though, I always excelled in my math classes in high school. I managed
to finish calculus back in high school, but during that time I had a teacher
for the visually impaired sit in my math class with me to explain the
formatting and pictures/visuals.
Now, it's slightly different. The Disabled Student Services Office at my
school is providing me with a scribe who will help me write down all my
notes. They will also accomodate my testing time. Additionally, they are
providing me with accessible formats to read my books, tests, and notes. I
think I've got most of it sorted out, but what should I do when it comes to
doing homework. Can I possibly do it on the computer? I know it can get
tricky because of the formatting/arrangement of certain math problems. If
anyone here has any suggestions please, please let them be known.
Juanita Herrera
