A Braille teacher has contacted me with concerns about a Blind student  who is supposed to use a program called “Link it”. Which it seems is not reading the test questions. Any ideas? The tech-support people at the school are aware of this. They said to just try a different laptop, but the issue is not his laptop. The issue is the program link it which is the screen reader they use.
He is supposed to use in a couple of weeks for his final exams. But of course, this is impossible, to do independently.

Does anyone know anything about this program? Thank you.
