Published by the Carroll Center for the Blind, The fourth edition of The
Windows Screen Reader Primer: All the Basics and More is now out. It is
available to you for free in Word and ePub formats. Authored by David
Kingsbury, an Assistive Technology Instructor at the Carroll Center , the
book is meant to help JAWS, NVDA, and Windows Narrator users work more
effectively with the most important PC applicationslike Microsoft
Offfice, email clients, and web browsers. These applications include the
Windows operating system, the four primary Office Suite applications
(Word, Outlook, Excel and PowerPoint), and the three most commonly used
web browsers (Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, and Mozilla Firefox).
Dropbox, OneDrive, and Google Drive for Desktop, the three most popular
cloud-based file-sharing programs, are also covered. So too is Adobe
Acrobat Reader for accessing PDF files. A new chapter on participating
in, scheduling, and hosting Zoom meetings is included in this second
edition. So too is an appendix on using academic style guides for
formatting Word documents. A glossary with over 100 definitions of
computer-related terms and a set of practice exercises are also
included.<br><br>
The book is intended for both beginners and intermediate users. While all
the basics are covered, those already possessing a fair amount of
experience using screen reader programs in the Windows environment will
find useful tools and techniques to further enhance their
skills.<br><br>
