Hi all,
The second edition of my book, =E2=80=9CThe Windows Screen Reader =
Primer: All the Basics and More,=E2=80=9D is now out. Published by my =
organization, The Carroll Center for the Blind, It is available to you =
for free in Word and ePub formats. The book is meant to help JAWS, NVDA, =
and Windows Narrator users work more effectively with the most important =
PC applications, including the Windows operating system, MS Office =
(Word, Outlook, Excel and PowerPoint), and the three most popular web =
browsers (Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, and Mozilla Firefox). Dropbox, =
OneDrive, and Google Drive for Desktop, the three most popular =
cloud-based file-sharing programs, are also covered. So too is Adobe =
Acrobat Reader for accessing PDF files. A new chapter on participating =
in, scheduling, and hosting Zoom meetings is included in this second =
edition. So too is an appendix on using academic style guides for =
formatting Word documents. A glossary with over 100 definitions of =
computer-related terms and a set of practice exercises are also =
included.
The book is intended for both beginners and intermediate users. While =
all the basics are covered, those already possessing a fair amount of =
experience using screen reader programs in the Windows environment will =
find useful tools and techniques to further enhance their skills.
