[JAWSLite] Re: JFW and BlackBoard

it's an online college/trade school system where the students can sign on, 
check for there assignments, take tests, go over lecture notes, and even 
chat among themselves.

a lot of colleges use it for both a supplement and instructor contact device 
for on campus classes and for the taking of online courses.

now, my information is very... very dated, but the last time I was on one of 
those things, it was somewhat accessible. I had to do a lot of jaws 
cursering, and could not use the chat window at all, and the tests I used a 
lot of invisible cursoring to make sure I was in the radio button I thought 
I was, but I did manage to take a course online with it.

it may well have improved a lot since then (10 years back) so I hope someone 
has a fresher viewpoint!
