Subject: [nfbcs] new to list and questions

Hi everyone,

I just signed up for the list today since I'm interested in going  back to
school to get a computer science degree.  I already have a degree in
Biological Sciences but wanted to supplement it with the computer science
one since they go hand in hand in many employment settings.  I am currently
employed full-time so am looking into distance education and this is where
my questions come in.
 
Have any of you completed coursework online?  Was it accessible?

I have several schools in mind, like Baker, Regis, and University of
Atlanta.  I think most are using Blackboard.  

I use JAWS 13, iPhone, Open Book so am wondering if  I can complete all the
work with this technology.  

Basically, I want to know any obstacles you have faced during education and
even with future employment.


Look forward to hearing your responses,
Tara
