Lanie Molinar Carmelo<p><strong>Really wishing there was a good textbook reading app for someone with both visual and cognitive <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/disabilities" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>disabilities</span></a>.</strong><br><br>I just started a new course at Colorado Christian University, and this week's reading is <strong>7 chapters</strong> from a book called <em>Introducing Christian Doctrine</em>—which is pretty heavy stuff. I've been struggling just to get through the first chapter.</p><p>I tried reading in <strong>Word with JAWS</strong>, but quick navigation keys keep getting disabled, and adding comments isn’t very accessible. So I switched to the <strong>ePub version in Bookworm</strong>, which lets me add bookmarks, named bookmarks, and comments. That’s been a huge help.</p><p>For notes, I’m using <strong>Joplin</strong>, which works well for organizing thoughts in Markdown. And when I hit a sentence I don’t understand—like <em>“propounded dogmatically”</em> (what even is that?)—I just open <strong>Copilot</strong> in the browser and ask for a plain-language explanation.</p><p>It’s not perfect, but it’s working. I just wish there were tools designed with both <strong>cognitive load</strong> and <strong>screen reader accessibility</strong> in mind. Reading theology is hard enough without fighting the tech too.</p><p><em>(My degree is in computer science, but theology is part of the core curriculum.)</em></p><p><a

I’m a blind student returning to college to pursue a <strong>B.S. in Computer Science</strong> through Colorado Christian University Online. This is my third attempt at college due to chronic illness, but I’m excited to be back and determined to make it work.</p><p>I’m looking for advice on two fronts:</p> <p><strong>📝 1. LaTeX on <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/Windows" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Windows</span></a></strong></p><p>I’ve recently started learning LaTeX and find it a more accessible way to write papers—especially when paired with <strong>Zotero</strong> for citations. My main machine is a <strong>Windows 11 Pro mini PC</strong>, and I also have a <strong>Raspberry Pi running Arch Linux ARM</strong>.</p><p>So far, I’ve tried:</p><ul><li><strong>Overleaf</strong> – nice interface, but the PDF viewer isn’t very screen reader-friendly and the editor has some issues too (JAWS/NVDA repeat lines).</li><li><strong>VS Code with LaTeX Workshop</strong> – most accessible option I've tried</li><li><strong>TeXnicCenter</strong> – only briefly.</li></ul><p><strong>👉 Question:</strong> What LaTeX editors or workflows do you use on <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/Windows" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Windows</span></a>, and how accessible have you found them?</p> <p><strong>➗ 2. Relearning College-Level Math</strong></p><p>I’ll be starting with <strong>calculus</strong> early next year. It’s been a long time since high school, and chronic illness has affected my memory and cognition. I used to use a <strong>Perkins Brailler</strong> for math, but arthritis/lupus (still being diagnosed) makes that painful now.</p><p><strong>👉 Question:</strong> Can anyone recommend accessible resources for relearning math—especially for someone doing everything online?</p><p>Any tips for doing <strong>math, science, or programming fully online</strong> as a blind student would be incredibly appreciated.</p> <p>Thanks in advance! I’m happy to share what I learn along the way.<br><br>Feel free to boost or tag others who might have insights.</p><p><a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/BlindTech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BlindTech</span></a> <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/Accessibility" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Accessibility</span></a> <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/LaTeX" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LaTeX</span></a> <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/STEM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>STEM</span></a> <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/DisabilityInSTEM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DisabilityInSTEM</span></a> <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/MathAccessibility" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MathAccessibility</span></a> <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/JAWS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>JAWS</span></a> <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/NVDA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NVDA</span></a> #<a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/ScreenReader" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ScreenReader</span></a> Zotero <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/ChronicIllness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ChronicIllness</span></a> <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/OnlineLearning" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OnlineLearning</span></a> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/mastoblind" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>mastoblind</span></a></span> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://rblind.com/c/main" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>main</span></a></span></p>

Gordon Anthony<p>Sorry, folks, a bit more <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/Technology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Technology</span></a> help required. This is another odd one.<br>I’ve just got a new Windows 11 PC. A couple of times, but not every time, when I start the PC up, I don’t hear JAWS announce the login screen. When I check with SeeingAI, the screen shows the lock screen with time &amp; date. However, I can’t get rid of it to get to the login screen. I’ve tried Escape, Space Bar, Enter, Alt Tab but nothing works. All I can do is press the PC’s reset button and then it restarts perfectly.<br>Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this?<br>Any suggestions welcome.

Adam MacLeod<p>Trying this again, since I got no answers last time, and only one confirmation that I'm not alone in seeing this behaviour:<br>For whatever reason, the JAWS "Check For Updates" menu option under the Help menu is always unavailable when running Windows and JFW in a virtual machine on a Qemu-KVM hypervisor.<br>What I'd love to know is if anyone knows if this is a bug or feature?

With the online version, though, I don't see any keyboard shortcuts, and when you move into the edit box to start writing a paper, focus gets trapped there and it's hard to get out, so I don't think it's the best tool for me. The only other tool I know of is the reference manager built into Microsoft Word, but it seems to have fewer features and doesn't really help you format your paper like Perrla does, something I was looking forward to since all the APA rules for styling seem hard to remember.<br><a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/College" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>College</span></a> <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/CollegeStudent" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CollegeStudent</span></a> <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/accessibility" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>accessibility</span></a> <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/JAWS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>JAWS</span></a> <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/ScreenReaders" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ScreenReaders</span></a> <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/writing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>writing</span></a> <br><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/mastoblind" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>mastoblind</span></a></span> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://rblind.com/c/main" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>main</span></a></span></p>

I'm not sure when it started, but mine is completely inaccessible. Anytime I try to use PictureSmart, FS Companion, or anything else that uses the results viewer, it opens, but I can't read anything. JAWS won't do anything while on that window, and escape doesn't close it like it should. I tried repairing JAWS but that didn't fix anything, so I'm wondering if it's a script I use causing the problem. The only scripts I have installed are Leasey and the Zoom pro scripts by <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://dragonscave.space/@brian_hartgen" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>brian_hartgen</span></a></span> and a few scripts for things like Discord and Unigram by Doug Lee. I'm starting to contemplate a complete reinstall of JAWS though because not being able to use the results viewer is causing me more and more pain.<br><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@freedomscientific" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>freedomscientific</span></a></span> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/mastoblind" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>mastoblind</span></a></span> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://rblind.com/c/main" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>main</span></a></span> <br><a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/blind" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>blind</span></a> <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/tech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>tech</span></a> <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/accessibility" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>accessibility</span></a> <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/Windows" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Windows</span></a></p>
