Hi Beth,

Thanks for the info! I'll look at the Web site more carefully once I have
the account information from my teacher.

Thanks,

Chris

Well, I've got some good news about that.  turnitin.com is accessible with
JAWS, but it's been a while since I looked at it.  
SafeAssign may not be accessible, but the weird thing about SafeAssign is
that professors tend to embed a button for tturning something in using
SafeAssign.  Turnitin has a pasword you type in, whicch you should get from
your teacher.  Then, you have access to all the tabs and links to the
assignments.  Then, you browse the computer and ssee which asignment you
need to turn in, and upload files that way.  Usually, colleges use turnitin,
but I'm not surprised high schools have started this.

Hi everyone,

Today was our first day of classes, and my English/Freshman Seminar teacher
informed us today that she uses the Web site TurnItIn.com to turn in certain
assignments, particularly long-term projects and essays.  Has anybody on
this list used this Web site to turn in work to your teachers? If so, how
accessible is it with JAWS? If it is accessible, how do I use this site with
JAWS to turn in work? By the way, in the event that this Web site is
inaccessible, I've already talked with my teacher and she gave me permission
to email projects usually turned in on turnitin.com to her.

Thanks in advance,

Chris
