[nabs-l] Chemistry help

[Aleeha Dudley]

The answer to one of your questions is quite simple: yes. A blind student can succeed at chemistry. There are many who have taken it and succeeded. There is a braille periodic table available from the American printing House for the blind.many of the labs can be completed safely using alternative techniques. It may just depend on the lab course that you were taking. You can even light a Bunsen burner safely.I would suggest speaking with someone at Independence science. They can really help you with this.

How do you do the labs in the class safely and how do i get a copy of the periodic table?  Is there a braille periodic table or a copy that works with JAWS?
