Hi Nick,

I have read your threads, and you are getting a lot of great advice.

Have you considered a mixed approach of analog and digital technology?
For example, if you used any of the low-tech tactile products, you would have something like a sighted student's sketch pad for making drawings. Then if you wrote or had a reader write on the paper, you'd have a key. Then you could take a photograph for a digital copy to submit to your professor as proof of your original idea. At that point, if you had to use a reader to program inaccessible software, you have a record documenting your understanding of concepts that is independent of knowledge of a particular software package.

Just a few thoughts--the engineers on this list might have a different opinion.
