It could also be an option to try and find a different type of notetaker, like a braille note.

Also, I have already asked my school district for one, and they have told me it was not an option. If anyone is trying to sell a Braille sense do please let me know, as I am looking for one.

>>>>> Hello. My name is Jessica Hodges and I recently discovered this list. I will be going in to twelfth grade, and am going into College and high school courses next year to try and get some college credit. Any questions are welcome, I am happy to help however I can. However, I also have one question for the list. Higher math is required to get somewhere in university, and this is always something I have struggled with. In doing research, it has appeared that a braille sense would help greatly in this, as it eliminates a step between doing a math assignment and turning it in. It would also allow me to be able to do math portably. Does anyone here know of a way to get one? I have asked my state organization, and they are willing to help, but not until the end of next year. My school has flatly refused, and college is looking into trying to get one but I wouldn't be able to take it off the college campus. The Braille sense would also reinvigorate my interest in reading braille, which has petered out as I have come to rely heavily on electronics, as well as making mathematical and scientific equations easy to manipulate and understand. This would also improve spelling errors which would make me a more productive typest. I don't mind waiting until spring of next year, but I feel that it would be really useful in my school career. Does anyone have any suggestions?
