Hi Monica,
I'd be happy to talk with you about that offline. I have just finished
completing Textbook Braille Transcriber Program through Northwest Vista
College in San Antonio, Texas. This program is in the process of being
revised for students who wishes to take the Braille courses online to be
available in Spring 2006. Take time to view my web site listed below.
My number is listed below as well if you wish to call me should you have any
questions.
I look forward to hearing from you very soon.
Lisa Hall,
Former Consultant for Adaptive Technology for Northwest Vista College, a
college of the Alamo Community College District.

Subject: [bookshare-discuss] Learning Braille Online
Does anyone know if there is a way to study Braille Online as a credit
course for college? My daughter, who has low vision, and uses audio/print,
would like to continue learning Braille. She almost finished Grade 2, is
good at Brailling what she knows, but poor and slow at reading. Her small,
liberal arts college in rural Pennsylvania will accept a foreign language
transfer credit from another institution of higher learning. She wants to
try and convince them to accept Braille because she needs it and because the
foreign language instruction she's had in the past has been really
incompatible with both her way of learning and the materials she has
available.
Thanks,
Monica Ballard
