<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am blind and give PowerPoint presentations all the time. I even create the content myself. Once I have it the way I “think” it should be, I have sighted colleagues review it to make sure everything does look good. I use JAWS and find
it doable, while not the easiest to do. Creating the content is not difficult, formatting to be pretty is what can take some time and thought.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">There are some basics to understand about using JAWS with PowerPoint. I suggest the student first create his content in Word using heading styles. Each new slide should start with a heading 1 style. When the file is pulled into PowerPoint,
it will automatically create a new slide each time there is A heading 1 encountered. Heading 2 will be the main bullet points of the slide and heading3 will be the subpoints. You can go deeper than that if needed, up to a level 6. I personally have never found
the need to do this.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">When in PowerPoint, the F5 key will launch slide show mode. Once in this mode, SPACEBAR will advance a slide and BACKSPACE will go back a slide. The ESC key will exit slide show mode and return to the normal view for editing.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">While in normal view for editing, TAB will move between the placeholders on the slide, ENTER will start edit mode on that placeholder, and ESC will exit edit mode for that placeholder. PAGEUP/PAGEDOWN will move between slides.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">CTRL+M makes a new slide which will have the default format or sometimes the same format as the previous slide. CTRL+N creates a new presentation. As always, CTRL+S will save the slide and CTRL+O will open a presentation.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Feel free to contact me if you have further questions.<o:p></o:p></p>

is reasonably confident using Narrator and Jaws, but this is more for consuming content and writing emails and documents.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
