Hello,
Just checking to see if anyone has had issues with a combination of Blackboard & JAWS-specifically, issues with form fields. We just tested Blackboard 9.1 with JAWS 14 & 15 and found that when a student came across a fill-in-the-blank, short answer, or long answer essay question on an exam, JAWS wouldn't actually provide any type of assistance in telling the student where and what to type. Additionally, JAWS and Blackboard seem to have trouble with matching-style questions, as well.
Thank you,
Jim Cavanaugh
