[BlindKid] Math Homework on the PC

Yes, it is possible. You can check out yourtechvision.com for some Youtube
videos that may help you understand. The Braille display will output UEB
math symbols but they can definitely learn to recognize those very quickly.

Subject: [BlindKid] Math Homework on the PC

I apologize for those of you who have already seen this question come across
the FB group. I'm just picking as many brains as I can right now.

At work at the community college, I do a lot with transcribing math into
braille for our blind students. I don't know how they are turning their work
in, because we have never, or at least not recently, received their math
homework to put into print for their professors. My girls are doing their
math homework on a braille writer. Is it possible for them to use a braille
display with a PC, to do their math, and turn it in with the rest of their
peers? There may be braille notetakers in their future for this, but for the
time being, I would like to know if, and how it can be done on the PC.
