The thing about using k1000 first before a notetaker (assuming you have it available to you) is this. It catches patterns and lots of little tiny things. Yes it does miss certain classes of things. Nevertheless, rank spelling is just so fast and catches so much. Running it is quite fast given what it catches. And improving the rank can kind of be like playing a twisted scrabble or puzzle.

Do you have any idea how to validate using a braille Sense? If I could cut out a step and only use one thing, I'd much rather read in braille and fix it as I go, rather then using first k1000, then reading it in braille to catch anything that looks weird.

Hi Pavi,
I think mentoring is a great idea. We have the volunteer manual, and I think it's pretty adequate in most respects, though maybe I'm not objective since I helped write it. <lol> Anyway, I would be happy to mentor new volunteers. I know how to validate with Word, Kurzweil, and the Braillenote.
Thanks,
Kellie
