[Trainer-Talk] Orbit reader and NVDA Help

[Quentin Christensen]

Hi Kerryann,

I see Denise has pointed you to one resource, NV Access has a couple of
resources as well:

- Basic Training for NVDA is our official training material designed to
walk you through learning NVDA.  I have done some work with children
previously, but I should say I am not a TVI or early childhood specialist
and didn't specifically write it with children in mind - although I have
heard from teachers who have used it with children and I believe it should
work fine.  If you use it, do please let me know how it goes, or how the
experience could be improved.

Basic Training for NVDA is available in electronic text, human read audio
or braille from: https://www.nvaccess.org/shop/

- NVDA comes with a user guide.  It's not really designed to teach you like
the material is, but for someone who has an idea of how NVDA works and
wants to refresh a specific command, it does list them all.  It's available
from NVDA's help menu, or online at:
https://www.nvaccess.org/files/nvda/documentation/userGuide.html

- NVDA also has a "Commands quick reference", also from the help menu.
Press NVDA+N, then H for help, then Q or down arrow once and enter.

Kind regards

Quentin.
