Hello, at the risk of a me-too-ish message. I do the same as you, David.
I find that teaching basic gestures, regardless of the usage of lack
there of a keyboard, are part of the building blocks of becoming a good
Voice Over user. This is like the analogy of teaching a man how to fish.

One of the differences between yours and my approach is I require my
students to acquire a basic fluency with gestures, whether or not they
are planning to use a keyboard. This way, they won't get stuck if the
keyboard doesn't function for some reason. Given that my research is
pointing toward the conclusion that buttons on portable devices are
disappearing at a chartable and seemingly predictable rate, this in my
opinion, is a necessary bit of training. Next year, my research will
officially focus on developing best understanding and practice around
how to train blind people to use touch screens with audible, rather than
haptic, responses.

Well, When I teach it, I usually start out by opening the practice
area and having the student practice various gestures or keyboard and
braille display commands depending on how they plan to use the phone.
The practice area is conveniently located in settings, general,
accessibility, voiceover, voiceover practice.
Then I arrange the screen for the user so that the apps they want to
start using right away are in the most convenient location on the
screen for their individual needs.
Then I start with the apps that are most interesting to each
individual user. It really is all a matter of personal taste.

If you haven't used the app store before, there's actually a link
to download IBooks right from the first screen when the store opens.
Bood luck,

Absolutely, although the selection of books from the ibooks
store might not be the same as it is in the US.

Hi,
How interesting. I never had this problem when continuously
reading in iBooks. I guess you could turn auto lock off in
settings/general.

Hi listers,
Don't know if you have this problem, but while reading in
iBooks my screen tells me that is dimmed in under a minute
and it stops VO from reading. It is very annoying. So how to
prevent locking? Leaving my phone unlocked or setting it
every time I am reading in the public transport is not an option.
