[humanser] Have any students/university educators used this software?

Hi all,

I will be taking a Psychology of Learning course this semester, and
the professor has just responded to my email regarding accommodations.
She tells me that part of our assignments will be done using a program
called Sniffy the Lab Rat Pro (version 3.0 by Wadsworth-Cengage
Learning).  Sniffy is a simulation of what it is like to train a lab
rat to perform various tasks, and we have four assignments on it
spread out through the semester.  I'm planning on calling Cengage to
see what they can tell me about Sniffy's accessibility, but I'm hoping
to find information from people who use it with screenreaders so I
have a better idea of accessibility.  I've emailed on NABS and social
sciences thus far, and while the social sciences list seems somewhat
familiar with it, I'm primarily getting a lot of emails that say
"Sorry, never heard of it either," which aren't really helpful.  If
anyone on this list has used Sniffy as a student or educator, I'd be
really interested to hear what your user experience was like.  I'm
running windows 7 with either Jaws 13 or the latest NVDA version.

Thanks,
