Hello,
I don't mind helping you try to troubleshoot this. If you want to feel
free to contact me off list. Is this page public so I can try to help
you figure out a solution?
Thanks,

However, two of my teachers have websites on Weebly where they post assignments and Powerpoints. I have also set up a folder in Google Drive for assignments and materials for each class. Both teachers have the materials for each unit in a dropdown menu on their websites. For example, for my Earth and Environmental Science class, you click on the resources page and a dropdown comes up where you select whatever section you are looking for. That’s what happens when a sighted parent or teacher goes through the steps on my Mac Air. However, when I go through the same steps, the dropdown menu does not come up. I tried it on my iPad and the same thing happened.

One thing we discussed is having someone open the correct page for me and than I could bookmark it. That would allow me to access whatever I need at the same time as everyone else, open it, and then put it wherever I need to put it, either in Google Drive or in a folder on my laptop. Another thing we discussed is that she could send me the links on the website in emails, but then it would take more advanced preparation for me to find what I need to save and what I need to bookmark. There is a lot of content on the Weebly pages, and they have the potential to be of great use to me. We are actually having a quiz on the first section on Wednesday in Earth Science, so these are fast moving classes. I am working on getting a successful system in place, but it is especially stressful when I cannot access the class website as easily as everyone else, and I know it is important for me to be efficient. Do you have any thoughts on how I could get VoiceOver to access the dropdown menu? If not, have you had a similar situation and what was your solution? I am glad it is the weekend! Thank you.
