Subject: [bksvol-discuss] OT-Web Braille
Hello Everyone:
I know that this is off-topic but I have been wondering, what is web
Braille? I googled this but got back some weird results; at least it seemed
weird to me or rather I didn't fully understand the results. Does anyone use
web Braille or is this a figment of my imagination? I have heard about this
"concept" but since I am not a really great or good Braille reader, it's not
clear to me. I know the Braille alphabets and most of the contracted Braille
"symbols" but reading it is my problem. I have never got the full and
complete concept of it, however, I would like to learn Braille and while in
my search as to how, someone (can't think of who) told me to try learning
through web Braille. Now, for me, this means that the dots will come on the
screen, as in Braille font, but that is where my mind draws a blank as how
this would help me. I mean, I use a Braille font when I'm doing classroom
charts, reading charts, schedule and the like for my early childhood
education classes but how can this teach me how to read it? If someone can
please explain web Braille to me I would greatly appreciate it. I am a
totally screen reader-talk back to me-person but have been toiling with the
idea of Braille for some time. Thanks,
Netta
