Many people think of the internet as a largely visual medium.  This can present unique challenges for people who are vision impaired, resulting in changes to the way assistive software users access and browse the world wide web.  This comprehensive resource package is ideal for both those who are new to using the internet with a keyboard and previous users interested in learning what is new and different about Internet Explorer version 8.

More than simply a software manual, the package includes practical exercises to help you learn shortcut keys to navigate around the internet and find and use what you are looking for in the most effective and efficient way. Complete lists of all keystrokes for both JAWS and ZoomText users make the package an essential long term reference.

Specifically, the resource will enable you to:

• Understand how the internet works and set screen layout features to best meet your needs.
• Navigate within and between web pages and read content.
• Save web pages and use the “Favourites” feature.
• Search the internet and identify sources of information in the most efficient way.
• Navigate around web sites that are formatted as tabbed pages.
• Access and set different Internet Options.
