[Trainer-Talk] Microsoft teams and Microsoft one note.

[Greg Aikens]

Hi Kat,
I use OneNote a fair bit at work to keep track of meeting notes, etc. 

Microsoft Accessibility has some great resources on using OneNote. A quick search for "using OneNote with screen readers" should find their resources. 

Sometimes the cursor behaves strangely when you are reading and reviewing, but for the most part it works well for me. 

If you have specific questions, I can try to answer.

Best,

You usually navigate the Web Teams interface using the virtual PC cursor turned off. Usually doing a Tab and Shift+Tab gets you to where you need, plus some neat tricks like keystrokes you can use built-in. To access these, you press either Alt+Slash or Control+Slash depending on if you are either using the app or the Web version.
