Susie I am a TVI and I took an online course which Hadley school was
offering free of charge. I don't know if they are still offering it but even
if they are NOT perhaps if they can send you the workbook it would be
useful. If it is ok with them I can scan and send it to you.
My students are braille challenge winners and they are not mentioning
anything, but that might be because they are just overlooking it or figure
it is me that made the mistake?!
Transcribers and TVIs, NO OFFENSE intentioned toward either group have
different standards. If I can get materials to my students which are
understandable, good braille I am ok, but I know that the transcribers are
much more attentive and diligent, especially about formatting. I am glad
they are!!

Good Morning,
I am a full-time translator for APH and my own personal company DOT Over
DOT. No program is 100%, however there are times that the translation can
misread the meaning of standalone characters or mathematical equations. Over
all the translation is 90% correct. If you need a reference point for UEB
there are many materials out there for use and would be glad to recommend
them.

Subject: [duxuser] UEB question
Have any of you received any kind of training on UEB?
I am a teacher of the visually impaired who uses Duxbury to create braille
for my students. I have received no training whatsoever on UEB. I have
assumed that Duxbury is creating the UEB documents correctly. But some of my
co-workers (both teachers and certified transcribers) say that Duxbury is
making some mistakes in the translation. Is there any documentation anywhere
that shows what mistakes Duxbury is making? Do we know if Duxbury is working
to fix these mistakes? Are they aware of mistakes?
