There are some TVI's here in Minnesota who have achieved partial access
using Chromevox, google's screen reader for Chrome, but it isn't for the
faint of heart.<br><br>

Google docs uses a lot of images. With my most advanced router commands I
typically can get most parts to work, but it is really imaged based as in
images of words not text itself so jaws or WE or any talking software
will fail to find it or talk it. If the teachers load to google docs or
send an email link to google docs it will open in an image and you can't
even copy and paste to word or find a way to extract the text to read it.
Your children will be very frustrated with it<br><br>
One of the worst cloud options...google has a ways to go on it in regards
to accessibility<br><br>

I’m meeting with our School District Tech Committee in the very near
future. They are looking into using Google Docs more.<br><br>
I know there are issues with Google Docs from a Blind Accesses
standpoint, but don't really know the full breadth of the issues.
<br><br>
Could any on you familiar with Google Docs Access concisely describe what
the problems/concerns are?<br><br>
An advanced “Thank You” for your time & insights.<br><br>
Sincerely,<br><br>
