<DIV style="RIGHT: auto" id=post-body-5884329111653262765 class="post-body entry-content">TRACK CHANGES enables a blind student to write a paper, email it to a teacher and the teacher makes comments, and emails it back to the student. When the student opens it with the track changes---which are tracks of editing of red, purple, etc to the visual person, but become verbal comments to the blind student. The blind student moves through the document with their talking software, and can hear all the corrections that need to be made and can easily correct them with the TRACK CHANGES feedback or they just hear the grade of the paper.<BR><BR>An additional plus to this is when the whole class is exchanging papers for correction by each other. The blind student turns on TRACK CHANGES then hands the laptop to the sighted student. All the sighted student has to do is put the cursor where the correction needs to be and begins typing. The remarks are tracked so the
blind student can read the input when they get the laptop back. Also, if everyone is correcting their own work, then hand it in, the blind student makes the corrections, then emails the assignment to the teacher and the teacher can see the corrections.<BR><BR>One thing I love about this is I sent a lesson to one of my more advanced students and he made changes using TRACK CHANGES and sent it back to me for additions to the lesson. I laugh now as I think of it. All of us can always improve and I love that my students who know we so well, feel at ease at making comments on the lessons I send to them. We are all teachers!! </DIV>
