JAWS Training: Overcoming Last-Day Distractions

In this episode of iCantCU, I share my experience completing JAWS training and the challenges I faced with distractions during the last day. I also discuss an interview with Ann Cunningham, an artist who taught art to blind individuals at the Colorado Center. Ann created the Sensational Blackboard device, allowing blind children to draw and feel their creations. I mention the upcoming convention in Houston and a convenient skyway between the central and spillover hotels. I plan to bring my computer to the convention and discuss the differences between a Windows machine and a Mac. I also talk about my recent work on a mail appeal for the National Federation of the Blind of Pennsylvania and the use of keyboard shortcuts.
