JAWS and Windows: A New Learning Curve

Listen "JAWS and Windows: A New Learning Curve"

Episode Synopsis

In this episode of iCantCU, I talk more about relearning JAWS and remembering how different Windows is from MacOS. Remembering is the keyword here. I also discuss episode 069 of White Canes Connect with Mike Walsh from Flight for Sight. They are giving away three $10,000 travel grants to blind and visually impaired people. You'll hear a clip from Mike in Just Listen Show notes at https://www.iCantCU.com/227    Win A $10,000 Travel Grant From Flight For Sight If you are interested in travel and want to inspire and educate people in the blind community, apply for a $10,000 grant from Flight for Sight at https://www.flightforsight.net/apply/. The deadline is May 1, 2023. If you have any questions, reach out to Mike Walsh at [email protected]. You can also connect with them on the socials @FlightforSight.  Laptop Bag For Lenovo IdeaPad 5 The laptop I bought to put JAWS on is a Lenovo IdeaPad 5 with a 15.6" screen (which is wasted on me, but the other specs were what I needed.) The bag I chose, or, should I say, Eliz chose is the Lenovo Laptop Shoulder Bag T210 for screen sizes up to 15.6". We bought it at Amazon: https://amzn.to/3GXmEoc.  Learn About Descript The transcript from this episode is done using Descript. Try out Descript for free at https://www.descript.com/?lmref=Yw2dhQ.
