[NABS-L] Blackboard Collaborate

[nesma aly]

Hi Jorge,
My college used blackboard collaborate this past semester. As far as
Accessibility using voiceover goes, I used blackboard collaborate with my
iPad running voiceover and it’s very much Accessible, except that it’s hard
to use the chat box. So what I would do is if I had something that I wanted
to contribute or if I wanted to ask a question, I would push the raise hand
button.
I hope you find this helpful,
Nesma
