[Athen] [EXT] Pearson My Math Lab for Blind Students

[Robert Beach]

It is sad. We always have to hire a lab assistant to assist the visually impaired student. My students report that it is worse with Voice Over than with JAWS or NVDA.

Hi all,

Can you please share any recent experience working with Pearson's My Math Lab for a blind student?  How much of the platform is actually accessible with a screen reader or braille display?

Warmly,
