Audio Tutorials: Teaching the Mac and iOS with VoiceOver

Robert begins this Tech Doctor podcast by congratulating Allison on her appearance of Shelly Brisbin’s excellent new The Parallels Podcast Robert and Allison spend the remainder of the show talking with John Panarese, an experienced access technology teacher and certified Apple Consultant. John has recently created a series of excellent audio tutorials teaching VoiceOver users how to get the most from the Mac and iOS. The tutorials are not operating system version dependent which makes them viable for iOS 9 and El Capitan. John’s clear, straightforward teaching style combined with his years of experience really makes these lessons easy to understand. Robert plays a brief example of John’s lesson on the concept of “interaction” when using VoiceOver on the Mac. Robert hopes that this example will give you a flavor of just how clear and cogent these tutorials really are. The audio tutorials are available for sale on John’s Mac For The Blind website. John describes the tutorials that are available at the time of recording and talks about plans to add more in the future. Robert and Allison encourage everyone to check them out. John, Robert and Allison next spend a little time speculating about what Apple will likely announce in the September 9th event. We are excited. Finally, Robert and Allison thank Allison Sheridan of the NOLISSA Cast for creating and helping Robert install a fabulous new logo for the Tech Doctor podcast.
