>iOS technology is a game changer. School 
>districts across the country are purchasing and 
>deploying iPads to students across grade levels 
>- even integrating them into the classroom 
>curriculum. But how many teachers and parents 
>are ready to ensure that their blind students 
>have equal access to all the iPad has to offer?
>
>iOS Success, written by a blind user and iPad 
>instructor, gives step-by-step instructions for 
>every pertinent accessibility feature the iPad 
>has to offer - including getting acquainted with 
>VoiceOver and Zoom, setting accessibility 
>options, pairing external devices such as 
>keyboards and refreshable braille displays, 
>setting up Apple accounts to buy apps like 
>iBooks, using the Cloud and Dropbox, and much, 
>much more. The last chapter includes tips from 
>blind students who use their iPads daily and one 
>very committed parent who is mastering iOS technology alongside his blind sons.
>
>The book assumes the reader has never used an 
>iPad, and it's written in plain English. 
>Although it is geared to parents and teachers, 
>there is plenty of useful advice for blind users 
>as well. What are you waiting for? Join the iOS revolution!
