on ensuring that MyMathLab will work with magnification software and screen
readers. According to their presentation, that functionality should be
incorporated into a version of the program that will be released this summer.  Pearson’s

<br>
We are struggling with getting ZoomText to play nice with MyMathLabs
Plus.  Seems it will work well for the student for the homework sections,
but not on tests.  When using ZoomText for the test, the student reports
that all the numbers are 'squished' together.<br>
<br>
Any thoughts on this? Is anyone using MAGic or some other screen magnification
that works?  (The magnifier built in to MS Windows is NOT sufficient for
this student.)<br>
<br>
THANKS in advance for ANY helpful thoughts!!<br>
