[Trainer-Talk] Using NVDA with K-12 students

[Dr. Denise M Robinson]

Both are needed depending on the task. They are both easy to teach and the
child learn, as long as you know the commands that go with the programs. I
have started students as young as 3 years old and through the whole
spectrum of gifts and talents and they all grasp technology as long as it
is applicable. As in the student needs to do a particular lesson like PPT
and you teach it with the commands and they learn it fast, or math in
excel, or an MLA paper and so on. They get anything fast as long as it is
something they need right then and there.
