Here’s how to access Bruce’s audio files with JAWS.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

When the page loads, JAWS announces the number of links on the page.<\/span><\/p>\n

  1. \n
    Hit the “page down” key four times.\u00a0 You will hear JAWS read the Introduction to Spiritual Gifts Motivations.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n
  2. \n
    Hit the tab key.\u00a0 You will hear JAWS read the titles of the handouts, which are in PDF format.\u00a0 Press “enter” to access them.\u00a0 (Requires Adobe reader 8 or higher.)<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n
  3. \n
    If you tab past the handouts, you will notice that JAWS \u00a0is silent for the next\u00a0few \u00a0strokes of the tab key.\u00a0 These are the audio files.\u00a0 Because the files use the Adobe Flash plug-in, JAWS does not announce or recognize the links to the audio files.\u00a0 However, they may be accessed using the JAWS cursor.\u00a0 When you encounter the first silent link, or however many there are, \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0press the JAWS cursor (the top key on the right), and press “enter.”\u00a0 The audio file should start playing.\u00a0 You must press the JAWS cursor before entering: \u00a0otherwise, the file will not play.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
