Really wishing there was a good textbook reading app for someone with both visual and cognitive #disabilities.

I just started a new course at Colorado Christian University, and this week's reading is 7 chapters from a book called Introducing Christian Doctrine—which is pretty heavy stuff. I've been struggling just to get through the first chapter.

I tried reading in Word with JAWS, but quick navigation keys keep getting disabled, and adding comments isn’t very accessible. So I switched to the ePub version in Bookworm, which lets me add bookmarks, named bookmarks, and comments. That’s been a huge help.

For notes, I’m using Joplin, which works well for organizing thoughts in Markdown. And when I hit a sentence I don’t understand—like “propounded dogmatically” (what even is that?)—I just open Copilot in the browser and ask for a plain-language explanation.

It’s not perfect, but it’s working. I just wish there were tools designed with both cognitive load and screen reader accessibility in mind. Reading theology is hard enough without fighting the tech too.

(My degree is in computer science, but theology is part of the core curriculum.)

Quint has some great dialogue. 😆 Robert Shaw does such a good job as Quint. #Jaws

#Jaws is a good analogy to what happened during the covid pandemic. We had business owners who cared more about what a lockdown would mean for their profits instead of how many people would die. #GreedKills

Why is it that when Dreyfuss cuts open the shark what comes out looks not red like blood but milky white? Digestive juices are milky white? 🤔 #Jaws

50th anniversary of 'Jaws': How the film impacted public perception of sharks

A theme song consisting of a simple two-note motif has kept swimmers terrified of open water for decades.

Ich komme gar nicht darüber hinweg, dass "Der weiße Hai" im US-Original einfach nur "Kiefer" hieß.
Wie ein Zahnarztfilm. King Kong hieß schließlich auch nicht "Eckzahn"...

I just purchased MS Office, and what a great decision that was. Now I’m looking for a reference manager that works well with JAWS and Word. Ideally something accessible, stable, and reliable for academic writing. Does anyone have any recommendations?

DUN-DUN…DUN-DUN…DUNDUNDUNDUNDUNDUN... "Jaws" is 50 this month. We know! We also can't believe it. Here's a @Flipboard Storyboard we put together featuring Roger Ebert's original review, information on how the anniversary is being celebrated, and Steven Spielberg talking about the making of the movie. We want to know: Which of Spielberg's scary movies is your favorite? We know he didn't direct "Poltergeist." We also know that "Schindler's List" is truly scarier than any of these.

So here’s one of those keyboard shortcuts I probably should have known about already after over 10 years of using #JAWS, but didn’t! When I press Alt+Windows+S, JAWS announces “meeting status unavailable”. This appears to be a global shortcut and doesn’t seem to change no matter what I do from my (admittedly very brief) testing. FS Companion says that the keystroke is used to toggle between the local machine and the remote machine in a tandem session, which is incorrect. Anyone know what this does? I’m also using #Leasey if that makes a difference. #BlindTech #ScreenReader @freedomscientific

Thanks everyone for the great recommendations for MS Word alternatives! I’m now on the hunt for a good PDF reader that works well with JAWS on Windows 11. Or even something that can convert PDFs to text files so I can read them with my Braille display and add notes easily. Any suggestions?
