Dane, you've totally missed the point completely.
the only way students can learn how to fix stuff is to do it
themselves, to press the keys and remember the commands themselves.
Freedom Scientific says JAWS Tandem helps because you can use your
computer to fix their problems. I say that's not a very good teaching
method.

I'm no teacher but it seems to me that - in the case of Tandem and
being on the phone - that 1 compliments the other, I mean you can't
get Skype to fix a JAWS related issue can you.

Hi,
Honestly, everyone always talks about how beneficial JAWS Tandem is
to someone who trains people on how to use JAWS. Going onto someone
else's computer to fix their problems for them has never been the
way I teach. And since you have to also use something like Skype or
the phone in addition to JAWS Tandem, I have usually been able to
hear the other person's JAWS just fine.
If you listen to the JAWS Tandem webinars, you will notice that
safety isn't really addressed. I haven't really been concerned with
that since I haven't found a benefit in using it. But I think
relying on big companies to ensure their servers are safe... well,
as you say, Dane, there might be hell to pay. But one should always
take their own precautions as well.
