Re: [AI] MS Excel sessions on Saturdays for all working persons with visual impairment

2013-01-05 Thread Neha Agarwal
Friends
Even I had attended this training last month and benefited from it.
Training brushed up my skills and learned many new concepts which are
going to help me in future.
As we all are aware excel is huge concept and it couldn’t be taught in
a week or two. But Tony made us to learn important concepts in excel
which are really useful for each one of attendees.
Apart from training module, though he is a sighted trainer, I didn’t
find any difficulties in learning from him neither in group nor
individually. Rest it depends on individual how they take it.
Personally I feel, when trainer forms a group to teach something he
will surely take care of each individual. So he did with out any spoon
feeding. Each attendee was from different background, so each one had
different performing level.
Tony E-mailed 3 to 4 exercise in advance. He E-mailed us 2 by second
and another 2 by third day to each candidate with instruction once we
are done with our running exercise, inform him and go for next one, to
utilise our precious time we were spending with him just for a week.
Friends as of my knowledge, advance excel training was organised first
time for visually impaired, if not please do correct me. Though we
have experts on list, still there are many who are really in need of
this type of trainings. So we should respect the initiative taken by
Tony and Mitra Jyothi.
I apologise in case, unknowingly any one is hurt by my E-mail.


On 1/3/13, Umesha Economics umesha@gmail.com wrote:
 nice opportunity? (smiles).
 dear friends,
 I too attended the M S excel course in Mitrajyothi in December last year. my
 opinion is exactly opposite to that of Shreedhar's. before telling how it
 was, let me acknowledge that Mitrajyothi has done a marvellous job in other
 fields like talking books library, living skills training etc. especially,
 the talking books library which the institute is providing from last one and
 a half decades has gone a long way in enhancing the availability of reading
 materials for the visually impaired students of Karnataka. thousand plus
 students including myself have been greatly benefited from it. but this
 course in M S Excel is different and not worth attending. it is mainly
 because of it's instructor.

 as I said earlier, I also attended that one week course in December but
 learnt very little or nothing in the course from the instructor. Mr. Tony
 Thomas, sorry to say the truth, is not a right person to be a teacher or
 instructor.

 from the day one, I felt unsatisfied since I could not learn what I
 expected. the course  was named 'Advanced course in M S Excel'. but we were
 diverse group as per the knowledge in excel is concerned. there were some
 who did not know the basics of excel. we had to sit idle until they are
 taught the basics. I explained the problem to him and he assured that he
 would split the batch into groups according to needs and give the
 instructions as per their phase of learning from the next day. but it was
 not realized on the next day. ☺he gave many such assurances which never
 realized. on my second day, we requested for some changes in the pattern of
 instruction in terms of schedule regarding verbal explanation and practice
 sessions (theory and practicals). he agreed. it was also a never implemented
 assurance. many of us needed much more time for practice. but even after
 continuous requests, it was not provided. we were tired of long instruction
 sessions from morning about 10 to evening 6:30 or 7, and some days until
 8:00. once he said that extension in the evening is optional to students.
 but he continued having regular instructions and discussions in the evening
 making it inevitable for us to sit. as a result, we were unable to complete
 the exercises that were given to us.

 another problem was that he was teaching some personality related things
 also. it is the fate of many courses our NGOs offer. they do not want to
 teach one thing properly. they want to teach everything together. after
 reading this mail one may call me a rude person. but it is true that I have
 enough level of personality and it has been proved by my surroundings: my
 friends, colleagues, students, and others. so, this personality related
 instruction which consumed hours together in each day was a significant
 unwanted part of the programme for me and some others. one day he spent
 about 2 hours telling only about himself. was it all needed? certainly not,
 at least for me.

 he was asking us to play some fun games and we used to spend about one to

  (St. Petersburg, Florida, January 4, 2013) - Freedom Scientific, the 
world leader in assistive technology for those that are low vision or blind, 
today announced another member in the popular Focus Blue family of refreshable 
Braille displays.

  The sleek new Focus 80 Blue is one third the volume and forty percent 
lighter than the previous Focus 80 display but packs even bigger features, 
including Bluetooth® and a highly refined keyboard design.

  Eighty Braille cells is long enough to give you an appreciation of the 
way a document is laid out, which can really help you produce a well-formatted 
document, says Jonathan Mosen, Freedom Scientific's Vice President of 
Blindness Hardware Product Management. It's also long enough to reflect the 
layout of your computer screen when you are working with database applications 
such as in a call center. This is a device any Braille reader will love to have 
on their desk.

  Focus 80 Blue features both Bluetooth and USB connectivity, and is fully 
compatible with JAWS® BrailleInT providing Contracted Braille input in many 
Windows applications. It is also compatible with the full range of iOS 6 
devices, so you can access your iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch via Bluetooth. You 
have keyboard navigation throughout the Home screen and apps, and you can type 
and read in Contracted Braille or Computer Braille.

  Pricing and Availability
  The new Focus 80 Blue is priced at $7,795 with a two-year warranty and 
will be available in February.

Dear all,



I think that this is a wonderful initiative. I would be delighted to
volunteer as a trainer in Mumbai.



I am proficient  with MS Excel, Word, PowerPoint, Outlook etc. with Jaws.
Additionally, I also use voiceover on apple iPhone, iPod, and iPad. I have
limited experience with Mac but can help there too.



I can also help in setting up the logistics and in coordination.



I think that such an initiative is extremely useful and required.



Hope to see the initiative gathering momentum in Mumbai,



Regards,

Apoorv

Hi Prashant,

Good progress!

I just wanted to know whether use of headphone/earphone  is necessary to get 
the proper voice with increased volume or the voice doesn't come out through 
the external speakers given on the machine.

This machine is totally accessible and working well. Do remember to carry 
a

headphone/earphone to take advantage of the facility. You can use ATM card

 Totally blind mice get sight back

 By James Gallagher Health and science reporter, BBC News

 Eye



 Totally blind mice have had their sight restored by injections of
 light-sensing cells into the eye, UK researchers report.



 The team in Oxford said their studies closely resemble the treatments
 that would be needed in people with degenerative eye disease.



 Similar results have already been achieved with

 night-blind mice.



 Experts said the field was advancing rapidly, but there were still
 questions about the quality of vision restored.



 Patients with retinitis pigmentosa gradually lose light-sensing cells
 from the retina and can become blind.



 It's the first proof that you can take a completely blind mouse, put
 the cells in and reconstruct the entire light-sensitive layer

 Prof Robert MacLaren University of Oxford



 The research team, at the University of Oxford, used mice with a
 complete lack of light-sensing photoreceptor cells in their retinas.
 The mice were unable

 to tell the difference between light and dark.



 Reconstruction



 They injected precursor cells which will develop into the building
 blocks of a retina once inside the eye. Two weeks after the injections
 a retina had

 formed, according to the findings presented in the Proceedings of the
 National Academy of Sciences journal.



 Prof Robert MacLaren said: We have recreated the whole structure,
 basically it's the first proof that you can take a completely blind
 mouse, put the cells

 in and reconstruct the entire light-sensitive layer.



 Previous studies have achieved similar results with mice that had a
 partially degenerated retina. Prof MacLaren said this was like
 restoring a whole computer

 screen rather than repairing individual pixels.



 The mice were tested to see if they fled being in a bright area, if
 their pupils constricted in response to light and had their brain
 scanned to see if

 visual information was being processed by the mind.



 Vision



 Prof Pete Coffee, from the Institute of Ophthalmology at University
 College London, said the findings were important as they looked at the
 most clinically

 relevant and severe case of blindness.



 This is probably what you would need to do to restore sight in a
 patient that has lost their vision

 Prof Pete Coffee University College London



 This is probably what you would need to do to restore sight in a
 patient that has lost their vision, he said.



 However, he said this and similar studies needed to show how good the
 recovered vision was as brain scans and tests of light sensitivity
 were not enough.



 He said: Can they tell the difference between a nasty animal and
 something to eat?



 Prof Robin Ali published research in the journal Nature showing that
 transplanting cells could

 restore vision in night-blind mice

  and then showed the same technique worked

 in a range of mice

  with degenerated retinas.



 He said: These papers demonstrate that it is possible to transplant
 photoreceptor cells into a range of mice even with a severe level of
 degeneration.



 I think it's great that another group is showing the utility of
 photoreceptor transplantation.



 Researchers are already trialling human embryonic stem cells, at
 Moorfields Eye Hospital, in patients with Stargardt's disease.

 Early results

  suggest the technique is safe but reliable results will take several
 years.



 Retinal chips or

 bionic eyes

  are also being trailed in patients with retinitis pigmentosa.
