Google has some good support pages but a quick summary. 

As with all the Google apps, make sure virtual PC is turned off. After that, it feels a lot like PowerPoint with JAWS. Use tab to move from object to object, page up and page down to move from slide to slide, press Enter on an object to edit it and escape to exit edit mode.

I have a TVI that is asking how to do this. The presentation is online and from the library and the slides do have text but it is read-only and they aren’t sure what you have to do to navigate this with jaws so that the student can read the slides. Also any resources would be appreciated.
