Hi Yusuf
Yes, I have used Blackboard from the university I attend part-time. It is a
bit fiddly in that it took me a little time to navigate it and look for what
I wanted, but I was able to obtain lecture notes that had been put up there.
The only problem was that they were in Powerpoint format, so I needed to
extract the text from these presentations.
But, yes, it did work. In fact, I would go so far as to say that the
university portal is pretty accessible for me with JAWS.
Kind Regards,
Jackie Cairns

Subject: [access-uk] Blackboard with Jaws
I've been asked by a disability advisor at Uni about the accessibility of
Blackboard with Jaws. I've never used Blackboard with my own screenreader,
never mind Jaws so don't have a clue. Is there anyone here who has used it?
