Do your students just run JAWS as a demo? JAWS needs an authorization and

way to authorize it is to buy a dongle. There's a special form and not
everyone gets approved for them.

You can use just a regular unsecured thumb drive...then of course it can
easily go in the braille note and computer also. Just add the video
intercept and jaws to it and you are good to go Denise
