[nabs-l] Professor's Recorded PowerPoints Lectures on Blackboard

[Robin]

I am sorry that I forgot to mention how I was 
able to access the video content posted to 
blackboard. I enlisted the aid of Ol'Sighty (a 
sighted person) to locate the pause/play buttons 
as well as the transcripts of the video content in question.

I may be in the same boat this upcoming 
semester/term, and I may also enlist the aid of a 
sighted person (Ol'Sighty) if I am unable to 
uncover how to access this content from a 
blindness perspective, but I will press the 
university about the difficulty I am experiencing.

Good Luck with your blackboard course! If you 
find a suitable way to access the blackboard 
content (video), please pass it along on this 
list because I am sure there are others, who will 
probably benefit as much as I will.
