[NFBCS] [EXTERNAL] RE: Accessible Screen Sharing Question for WebEx

[Walker (US), Michael E]

Hello List,

I didn't realize that if I just click reply, it contacts the sender off-list, which it did when I replied to Curtis. Curtis provided some helpful information, but I am also curious to hear other opinions.

I am dealing with conflict with a coworker over getting the information I need in the meetings where they use screen sharing. I emailed my questions to the coworker. He said he would assign me tasks that he felt I could complete, and provide me with the necessary information at that point, instead of just answering my questions. How would you all proceed in that case? I feel responsible for keeping up with the visual information in the meetings just like everyone else, instead of me being provided a limited subset of information.

Thank you,
Mike

EXT email: be mindful of links/attachments.



Hello:

Unfortunately, screen sharing is not accessible to people who cannot see the screen. This is true no matter what meeting platform you are using. Best to ask to have the files sent to you in advance or (next best) after the meeting.

Cordially,

Curtis Chong

Hi,

If you are totally blind and in meetings where information is being screen shared to you, how do you get the information you need?

Thank you,
Mike
