Hi,

I would like to know if you could drop the components on the screen and connect various cables between them on the screen without someone else driving the mouse.

Depending on what you are doing in it, there are features your professor can unlock that will make it more accessible. I am totally blind and was able to use Packet Tracer last semester. I told my professor what I was having issues with and he customized the lab to unlock a couple features and presto I could do the lab. It is not great at accessibility but if you play around with it you can certainly use it for the most part.
