JAWS Screen Reader for the Blind


JAWS (Job Access for Windows and Speech) is a user-friendly screen reading program, and is designed to work with a speech synthesizer which increases a blind student's proficiency through reorganizing keyboard functions and automating commands. Students are able to add the power of JAWS to their computers at schoool and home without purchasing an additional synthesizer. JAWS also provides support for seven different languages.
