I'd be more interested in the times! I am in Arizona but work 10-hour days.

I guess you have to know how to do online and use the web? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bundy, Keith" <Keith.Bundy@xxxxxxx> To: <guispeak@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, June 05, 2008 10:29 AM Subject: [guispeak] Special Computer Class Dakota State University is happy to announce that its Introduction to Computers Class is being taught online this fall with one section specifically designed for screen reader users. The class begins on September 2 and runs for 15 weeks. Our staff is making sure that the text will be accessible for screen reader users, users of Braille displays, and users of Dragon Naturally Speaking with JAWS and J-Say. The course is entitled "Introduction to Computers." It presents a brief introduction to personal computers, along with Windows XP and Vista. The vast majority of the course focuses on Office 2007. Individuals who sign up for the class and do not currently have Office 2007 installed will be able to purchase the program for $20 from DSU. I will be the instructor, and I am a totally blind computer user who has used the computer with assistive tech for over 20 years. The cost for all distance education courses at Dakota State is $219.55 per credit hour. Thus, this three-credit course will cost $658.65. I know that, in South Dakota, the rehabilitation agency for the blind is willing to pay this tuition, and other state agencies may be willing to do so as well, given the fact that, to my knowledge, this is the only course of its kind being offered with accessibility for screen reader users in mind. We also welcome students from outside the United States. Students can either sign up for the course using our on-line registration form or by calling our office at 800-641-4309. The student will want to identify Keith Bundy's section as the one they are interested in. The Course Prefix is CSC 105 and the SYN number is 24511. The registration form is at https://www.secure.dsu.edu/ees/course_registration.asp/ If anyone has additional questions, please feel free to email or call me. Feel free to circulate this announcement to any individual or list you may deem beneficial.
