[nabs-l] doing math homework in college

For Statistics I had a scribe/reader read me all of the questions 
and write down the answers.
It took a whole year but I finished the class.

God Bless,
Christina

This is a good option for something like Remedio math, but it 
might be more difficult for algebra… I know that JFW has 
implemented math ML.  I would honestly recommend getting a tutor 
to help you do the Conversion from braille to print…

 I usually will take a picture of the page using K and FB reader 
or Prismo, and then send it to my email so that I can use the OCR 
feature with Jaws.  I will then type out my answers with 
Microsoft Word, going acrosse the page when showing my work.  I 
am doing practical Math one through The Hadley Institute for the 
blind, so if you need help I can help you.

 I am starting math next semester--nothing too bad, just remedial 
stuff.  Hoping to continue on to elementary algebra in 
springtime.  anyway, how have those of you who are totally blind 
gone about getting the work for each problem transcribed from 
Braille to print so professors can see what you did to come to 
the conclusion you drew? did you have help from a scribe, or is 
there a computer program that works with either a screen reader 
or braille display that can aid me in this process? I know math 
is going to get more and more challenging as I go forward, so I'm 
trying to get as much feedback and as many suggestions as 
possible on how to independently and efficiently get my work done 
for college-level math courses.  thanks very much in advance for 
your thoughts and I look forward to reading them.
