The Serotek Team
After reading this, I'm wondering something, just due to the wording.
You say, "Students in K-12 and college classrooms can use Serotek’s System Access Mobile screen reader simply by plugging the thumb drive in to any computer."
Key word that I'm looking at here is "college". Are you implying that Keys for K-12 will work for college students as well? On the Ultimatum post, there was a suggestion by one commenter that this happen and I'm just trying to understand what I'm reading here. If I'm wondering this, then I'm sure others are, too.
Granted, some high school students are dual credit and take college classes while in high school, and this would certainly apply to them, but that wasn't clear on what you wrote.
Any clarification would be greatly appreciated.
And, yes, for any readers wondering, I'm a paid user of System Access Mobile. I also train several students in a local school district on using their Keys for K-12 screen reader, also educating the teachers on this innovative program. I'm just wanting the information clarified so I can share it with all of them correctly.
Ron,
Great point. In answer to your question, only K-12 students receive free access to SA Mobile, or more specifically a single license of System Access, which runs on a U3 thumb drive. While System Access Mobile does provide the same functionality for college students or anyone else who has a need to arbitrarily use a computer which isn't preconfigured with assistive technology, it is only free to the K-12 group. Though the technology isn't free to college students, we do want to be sure they're aware of its existence, and with programs such as Build a Bundle and other Software as a Service options, the software should be affordable even on a college student's shoestring budget.
On another note, I'd like to thank you for everything you do to educate both students and teachers about a variety of tools available to make the classroom experience both productive and enjoyable. The fact that you make sure the student is actively involved in choosing what's best for them means they not only learn about technology, but they learn they have the power to make decisions for themselves, and that's the best lesson of all.
