Assistive Technology


The assistive technology that I use consists of hardware and software. I use a computer with voice recognition (Dragon Naturally Speaking) and a screen reader (Jaws) to do my homework, read email, and surf the internet. I use OCR (OmniPage Pro) to scan in typed hand outs that I get in class so I can read them in braille with my Braille Lite M40. I also use my Braille Lite M40 to take notes and do assignments in class. I have a Braille 'N Speak 2000 that I play games on and use when the Braille Lite M40 is not working.
