If you have a BrailleNote, there is a great Nemeth tutorial which 
you can download from license.humanware.com.  There are also some 
great reference sheets for Nemeth, which include all the symbols 
you need.  You can find these sheets at: 
?www.tsbvi.edu/nemeth-code/1524-nemeth-code-reference-sheets?Fo
r more resources, just Google Nemeth Braille Code cheat sheets 
and you'll find a lot of links.  I did this for one of the 
parents here in Maryland, and I found a lot more than I knew was 
out there.  Hope this helps!

"The real problem of blindness is not the loss of eyesight.  The 
real problem is the misunderstanding and lack of education that 
exists.  If a blind person has the proper training and 
opportunity, blindness can be reduced to a mere physical 
nuisance."
-- Kenneth Jernigan (President, National Federation of the Blind, 
1968-1986

P.S.  The I C.A.N.  Foundation helps blind and visually impaired 
youth in Maryland say "I can," by empowering them through 
providing assistive technology and scholarships to camps and 
conventions which help them be equal with their sighted peers.

Subject: [nabs-l] Self-teaching Nemeth code

Dear all,
Next semester I'll be taking my first mathematics course as a 
blind
student (I took college algebra as a sighted student years ago).  
My
workbook will be available to me in Nemeth Braille, and I want to 
be
sure I knowe the Nemeth code well before next semester.  I prefer 
not
to go with Hadley because I don't like to do all the assignments 
and
such.  I'd like recommendations for websites, books, and the like 
for
teaching myself the Nemeth Braille code.  I already have the 
Nemeth
Braille Code for Mathematics and Science Notation.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

~Jewel
