[Nfb-science] writing equations and graphing calculator

[Robert Jaquiss]

Hello Danielle:

     I would suggest you get MathType from Design Science. You can try it
free for 30 days. MathType is a plugin for Word that allows for the entry of
equasions. A blind user can enter equasions using Latex notation. After the
equasions are entered, select the whole document and press alt and backslash
together. The document will then contain math expressions.
Here is a link with more detailed information.

Hope this helps.

Regards,

Robert

Subject: [Nfb-science] writing equations and graphing calculator

Hello everyone,
For my math and science classes, there are many symbols I need to use which
I am unable to create properly in Microsoft Word. I have been mostly making
up my own symbols; however, I am looking for a better way of doing this. Is
there a way in which I can write equations using correct Nemeth Code on a
computer?
Also, are there any accessible graphing calculators available? I currently
have Mathtrax; however, it does not seem to be compatible with jaws.
Danielle
