A really useful set of articles from @TetraLogical's Ela Gorla that look at an Inclusive User Research workflow.

Helpful guidance for various stages of the process:

Recruiting Participants - tetralogical.com/blog/2022/08/

Moderating Sessions - tetralogical.com/blog/2022/01/

Building Rapport - tetralogical.com/blog/2025/05/

and

Analysing Findings - tetralogical.com/blog/2022/06/

Really helpful for any teams looking to make their Research practice more #Accessible and #Inclusive.

🎓 Returning #Blind #CS #Student – Seeking Advice on LaTeX & #Accessible #Math Tools

Hi everyone! I’m a blind student returning to college to pursue a B.S. in Computer Science through Colorado Christian University Online. This is my third attempt at college due to chronic illness, but I’m excited to be back and determined to make it work.

I’m looking for advice on two fronts:

📝 1. LaTeX on #Windows

I’ve recently started learning LaTeX and find it a more accessible way to write papers—especially when paired with Zotero for citations. My main machine is a Windows 11 Pro mini PC, and I also have a Raspberry Pi running Arch Linux ARM.

So far, I’ve tried:

  • Overleaf – nice interface, but the PDF viewer isn’t very screen reader-friendly and the editor has some issues too (JAWS/NVDA repeat lines).
  • VS Code with LaTeX Workshop – most accessible option I've tried
  • TeXnicCenter – only briefly.

👉 Question: What LaTeX editors or workflows do you use on #Windows, and how accessible have you found them?

âž— 2. Relearning College-Level Math

I’ll be starting with calculus early next year. It’s been a long time since high school, and chronic illness has affected my memory and cognition. I used to use a Perkins Brailler for math, but arthritis/lupus (still being diagnosed) makes that painful now.

👉 Question: Can anyone recommend accessible resources for relearning math—especially for someone doing everything online?

Any tips for doing math, science, or programming fully online as a blind student would be incredibly appreciated.

Thanks in advance! I’m happy to share what I learn along the way.

Feel free to boost or tag others who might have insights.

Has anyone ever tried this? I am worried about the time delay and ask myself if I should just wait a while ....

@IAmSpartacus #AltText is for #accessibility. Blind & visually impaired people cannot see the photo. To promote #inclusion & to make this place more #accessible to #PeopleWithDisabilities most of us use AltText to describe the actual content in photos/graphics for people who cannot see the content.

Many folks here won't boost posts that don't include AltText.

#WearRed on Wednesday, May 28!
The #EasterSeals #RedShirtDay of Action for #Accessibility and #Inclusion is a day when people across #Canada come together and wear red to create a visible display of #solidarity : to show their support for #PeopleWithDisabilities and their families, celebrate the achievements of #Canadians living with #disabilities , and to pledge their commitment to help create a fully #accessible and #inclusive society.

More info:
redshirtday.org/

Please boost to help me spread the word 🙏❤️

@fireborn It may be time to start hacking their source code to see how it really works and make a spin-off of it. Developers never like it when their own coded features get into different OSes. Time for #Graphene to realize just how much damage it's really done by making their OS #inaccessible and #noninclusive ! If #Linux #Mint can make their entire OS #accessible , there's 0 reason why #Graphene can't do the same thing!

Has anyone who is #blind or using a #screenreader had any experience with the VR-n76 #ham #radio handheld? Is the app #accessible with #voiceover? Can you use most functions through the app (IE, it would be possible to use the radio without seeing its screen)? I'm thinking about one for a summer trip, if only I knew I could use it. www.verotelecom.com/VR-N76-Dual-Band-Handheld-Radio-p2511333.html #hamradio #a11y #amateur #amateurradio

I just found that the latest #linuxMint installer is #accessible with #orca. I was using the #MATE spin. Someone at the Mint team clearly checked this; love to see it. Please don't break it.

@silveraura7 So the resources I’d recommend are: Babbel, coffee Break French which has a free podcast, Rocket Languages, French pod101 from Innovative Languages, French with Alexa, French Uncovered from Olly Richards. None of these are free, but they have accessible PDFs or apps or something. Others have mentioned other stuff too. LingQ was a total mess with a screen reader, I tried it on Windows and my iPhone.

Can i hide a svg via aria-hidden="true" but the SVG can still have <title> and <desc> elements? Afaik the SVG will still be skipped by screenreaders, but are they even if it has a <title> and <desc> as well? (i know it doesn’t make that much sense to keep these elements)

Is there a good reference manager that is #accessible that will work with windows 11 with nvda?
