I find VO works pretty well with it, I have used it with VO for 2 semesters soon to be three when this semester is over and Jaws fr the other 4, I would say both work alright with it. I can and do participate on the discussion board and can access all of the links on my professor's pages. I am using Safari for BlackBoard tough rather then Google Chrome which I just installed to see if it would work better than Safari. Use the track pad or VO keys with BB not quick nab because sometimes they don't work and try interacting with the content, this will allow VO to read and work with the discussion Board.

Blackboard Accessible
Hi Shanna, I use black board with VoiceOver, I know it was just updated for my university while we were on break. I find VO works pretty well with it, I have used it with VO for 2 semesters soon to be three when this semester is over and Jaws fr the other 4, I would say both work alright with it. I can and do participate on the discussion board and can access all of the links on my professor's pages. I am using Safari for BlackBoard tough rather then Google Chrome which I just installed to see if it would work better than Safari. Use the track pad or VO keys with BB not quick nab because sometimes they don't work and try interacting with the content, this will allow VO to read and work with the discussion Board.

Re: Blackboard Accessible
Hi Shanna, I saw this thread and wanted to jumpin and say that I've just started using my iPad and BT keyboard on black board in the discussion board area with the 3 online classes I have this semester and haven't had much trouble with it. I haven't tried using my MBP with it yet though as I've always found it easiest just to use my iPod before. I just got an iPad for Christmas. I'm loving it so far.

Re: Blackboard Accessible
Hello Shanna, Mike and Others, I've used Blackboard successfully with another web browser called OmniWeb. It has worked well. I just downloaded Google Chrome and will try using Blackboard with this new browser as soon as classes start in two weeks.
