Hi there, does anyone have experience with teaching a blind student who uses a braillenote how to properly format their papers in APA format? Have they been required to use other technology, like JAWS and Microsoft word? Other recommendations?

Apparently, braillenote Apex does not support running headers, kind of a big deal in citation world.

[And might I say, it has been quite interesting working with a non-sighted a person about the visual specificity of the citation styles].
