I am a 2nd year student here, community College, using BlackBoard with JAWS.
It's proved to be a learning opportunity, but it's also quite a learning
challenge. I have been afforded some amazing tutoring through the TRiO
program at school. Good luck with your studies.

Thank you very much for that.
I would hate to take a college course and go through the struggle because of
accessibility issues, especially with my primary screen reader jaws.
I am taking a prewreck to get into a graduate program next summer, so lets
see what happens.
Best of luck to you and feel free to email me off list and keep me posted,
or I can bug you in a month or so :).

Hello,
I am in a course right now, which uses d2l. it's inaccessible. When you
login to a course, there is a menu which jaws reads, and it doesn't read
anything else. I had some cited assistants from my community college and
they told me that apps are in the platform which load, which are
incompatible with jaws right now. I'm working with people from my community
college, former blind school, and will report bugs with d2l in the current
jaws 17 beta. Tomorrow, I have a phone call with someone from online
learning, to try to find a salution, until this can be fixt. I'll keep you
posted. My advice is to tell your professors that d2l is inaccessible ahead
of time, so they can get an alternate way to access the content.
Thanks,
Daniel

Has anyone used d2l from here?
I'm taking an online college course in a few months and apparently that is
what they will be using for discussions, submitting assignments etc.
Thank you.
