Subject: Re: [AI] I.T. Competition for youth with Disability in China, Government has invited nominations Hi prashant Sir, Although I have already sent in my application, both through a self-typed (because the PDF form was inaccessible) version via e-mail, and a printout via courier, I have two questions: * When could we expect a reply from the Indian organizers and on what basis will the initial nomination shortlisting for the National IT competition take place? * Scratch, being a visual programming language, as I have heard from credible programmers, cannot be worked with with screen readers. Is Scratch program knowledge a prerequisite or a software that the visually impaired will also be dealing with, or are there alternative screen reader accessible accomodations? Thanks.
