[nabs-l] Presentation Techniques

[Ashley Bramlett]

have someone turn slides for you. have a braille or large print copy of the 
slide you typed. when you want to turn slides,  just cue them to turn it.
work from your prepared copy and you'll be fine.

Sorry guys I didn't want to overwhelm with information, but seems I did the 
opposite :)
I am visually impaired but it is to the extent to which I can't see Power 
Point slides or any presentation aids (flash cards etc).
I use the screen reading package JAWS to create the initial presentation 
slideshow.

I expect not to have any screen reading software pre-installed on the 
computer I will be using in class.
I could always use my own laptop, but that would mean changing the 
configuration of the projector cables the college has setup.

The presentation is going to be law based, which I studied last year, but I 
am unsure of the topic or any additional information about the tutorials.

I don't know or use brail, I primarily work with technology.

I guess what I'm thinking of is, when there is a slide on the projector 
screen, that they can see, what could I do in order to prompt or assist 
myself?

Hope this information helps you understand the situation.

Kindest regards,

Niall.
