We explored SPSS 22 and JAWS (multiple versions – 14, 15, and 16) last academic year. We could technically get it working, but it was highly unstable even on a high-powered machine, and would never consistently work with JAWS through a single work session. There didn’t seem to be any one trigger for collapse, but at some random point in every work session, JAWS would simply stop talking in SPSS, although it would continue to function otherwise, and the only solution would be to exit SPSS, reboot the computer, and start over, which wasn’t productive. Our major testers were a faculty member/Ph.D. student who uses JAWS on a regular basis and his statistics professor, who is interested in improving the accessibility of his courses, in the context of a graduate-level statistics course, so the software combination got a lot of testing by experienced end users. We’re hoping IBM will continue to work on the issue and make more strides in improving the accessibility of the product. </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'> </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>Sorry to not have better results to report,</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>Teresa</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'> </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;color:#1F497D'>Teresa Haven, Ph.D.</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;color:#1F497D'>Accessibility Analyst, Northern Arizona University</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'> </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'> </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'> </span><o:p></o:p></p><div><div style='border:none;border-top:solid #B5C4DF 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in'><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma",sans-serif'>From:</span></b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma",sans-serif'> athen-list [<a href="mailto:athen-list-bounces@mailman13.u.washington.edu">mailto:athen-list-bounces@mailman13.u.washington.edu</a>] <b>On Behalf Of </b>Bishop, Jeff - (jeffbis)<br><b>Sent:</b> Wednesday, August 19, 2015 9:50 AM<br><b>To:</b> Access Technology Higher Education Network<br><b>Subject:</b> [Athen] SPSS Version 22 access with JAWS Version 16</span><o:p></o:p></p></div></div><p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Hello Everyone,<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>We have a student that will be enrolling in a statistics course this fall.
