[Athen] Mind mapping software

[Wershing, Alice D.]

The vendor has been very responsive to us.  You may want to set up a demo with them.

Robert,

Based on the webinar I sat through yesterday, the presenter said that Mind View uses most of the same keyboard strokes that JAWS uses. I am also curious on how drag and click works with JAWS. I am not a expert JAWS user, so I am unsure how to specifically answer your questions.

Hello, I am curious to know how mind mapping software works with a screen reader, since the nature of it is visual.  I'm wondering if it's just the functional parts, like converting it to an outline and other text-based tasks like that which are accessible, and not so much the concept maps themselves.

Mindview has a version that is the AT version.  I have recently purchased one copy and have used it a little bit.  It is designed accessibly to work with JAWS and Dragon Naturally Speaking.

Hi all,

Currently, I have Inspiration 8 (2010) installed on my lab computers (version 9 is now available). We reviewed MindView mapping software via a webinar yesterday. Does anyone have any advice on choosing one over the other?  While I rarely (if ever) have seen a student use Inspiration, I think, based on the webinar, that MindView may be more user friendly.

Any comments or thoughts about the effectiveness of one program over the other?

Thanks,

Bryon
