Thanks, John!<br><br>I should have said that I'm looking for a general AT resource list for individuals to know what alternatives exist rather than just one of each type of item. For example, screen magnification programs include ZoomText, Magic, Supernova, Lunar, Big Shot. Screenreaders include: HAL, JAWS, and Window Eyes. Just figured there's someone who's already come up with a list and hoping they would share. It's for a presentation to a group of parents of students in K-12 and what type of AT might be used in college (or on their way to college).<br>
<br>Thanks to all!<br><br>Heidi<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Jun 20, 2008 at 12:25 PM, John Elmer <<a href="mailto:JElmer@vcccd.edu">JElmer@vcccd.edu</a>> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">

Does anyone have a basic AT list regarding AT for individuals who are blind
or have low vision. I'm needing a list and didn't want to recreate
the wheel - so to speak - if someone already has such a list.<br>
<br>
Mucho thanks!<br>
