Hi Jackie. How advanced will these classes be? I did the adv anced
scripting class in Florida a couple of years ago shortly after v9 came out.
My current dilemma is to determine whether or not there is enough market
for professional scripting to make it worth the effort to bring my skills up
to date with v11. A sighted friend has been kind of interested in the two
of us teaming up to do script development on a part time basis since I am
definitely not interested in leaving retirement for full time work. Some
work would be fun though.
If you want to reply off list, my email is brumley1@xxxxxxxxxxx
best regards,
Wayne Brumley

Subject: [jawsscripts] jaws scripting classes
Hello, all:
Some of u have seen this, some not. Sorry for cross-posting, but...
I will be starting Jaws scripting classes on 18 June. I'm thinking
times will be 2100-22:30 gmt each Friday for 12 weeks. Sessions will
be held using teamTalk (available from www.bearware.dk) & will also be
recorded. TT is very accessible right from the get-go. I'll be happy
to help u get set up w/that.
Anyone enrolling who has an application they'd like scripted should
submit their choice w/the enrollment fee, as well as a link where the
program can be found. Yours just might be picked as an app to script
as a part of the learning process.
Cost is $240 if paid in 1 payment or $300 if paid in multiple
installments. The password will be emailed to u prior to each session
if you've paid.
I am allowing no more than 10 students per class, & I've already
gotten 5 commitments. So spots are filling up fast! According to the
principle of the tithe, I allow 1 student per class who cannot pay but
who has the potential to benefit greatly from learning scripting. I
have already approved a student for this particular class in that
category.
If there is enough interest, I will consider holding more scripting
classes, as well as classes on customizing Jaws without scripting. I
encourage private contact *off list* regarding this, as well as any
questions u may have.
The class assumes no prior programming knowledge, though a knowledge
of how to customize Jaws without scripts is helpful. It takes the
student from the very beginnings of the scripting language & guides
him/her through scripting an application. The only aspect that will
not be dealt with extensively is objects, as that can be a course in &
of itself.
The student is provided with a written text, recorded lectures,
instructor feedback, & answering of questions via email.
For those who do not know me well, I have been doing Jaws scripting
since 1995 in a vast array of venues, from call centers to standalone
applications, such as Band-in-a-Box. I am also a longtime instructor,
having first trained physicians & now teaching at the Cisco Institute
for the Visually Impaired. I'm certain many have seen my posts to
various lists over the years, as I try to be helpful where I can.
Again, I encourage private contact regarding this & thank everyone for
their gracious
attention.
