 Rather than reading cartoons just read the news.
 If you want something funny watch Comedy Nights With Kapil.
 There is no need for newspaper cartoons.

 Hello Bhavya

 I don't know if I remember it correctly. When I was studying in 4th
 grade in Sri Ramana Maha Rishi Academy for the Blind, I seemed to have
 observed a couple of blind fellows playing the game on a table.

 I don't know whether it was table-tennis or what but it felt to me as
 though an audible cricket ball was used in the game and I could hear
 the ball being rolled on the table. I think they were hitting with
 something that resembled a big wooden slate there were holding in
 their hands, standing at either end of the table. I think that was
 probably the tennis racket.

 It was a rectangular table and the players stood on either end with
 their rackets and when one player hit the ball, it would go rolling
 over to the opposite player, and when the opposite player hit the
 ball, it would come back rolling over again - so forth. Occasionally
 the ball would drop on the floor and people would cheer the fellow who
 hit it. So I assumed he scored 1 point over his opponent.
 As for me, I could only observe without asking any questions because
 to be honest, I wasn't supposed to be there – I had excused myself
 from a boring class. I didn't want to grab any attention on myself at
 that moment.

 Subject: [AI] Regarding table tennis for the blind

 Hi, dear Access india mailing list friends.
 I am interested in learning and playing table tennis.
 I would appreciate if you answered the following questions.
 Q1. Can table tennis be played by the totally blind?
 Note: I am asking the next few questions presuming that table tennis
 is accessible.
 Q2. What modifications are there in the rules?
 Q3. What different equipment needs to be purchased for efficient table
 tennis by the blind? Where could I purchase them from?
 Q4. Could you make a video playing table tennis so I understand better
 because my sighted parents would explain me in person.
 I am eagerly waiting for good and enthusiastic responses.
 Any assistance or guidance would be really appreciated.

Re: [AI] nvda and connecting to server using remote desktop connection

2013-11-18 Thread austin pinto
hi Zujar now I got a new sound card for my server I connected my

nvda say input capture window as I click on connect and that's it so

 Check the setting for Remote Audio in the Remote Desktop Connection
 dialog box. To do so:

 1. In the Remote Desktop Connection dialog box, press the TAB key as
 many times as required to navigate to the Options button (shortcut:
 ALT+O).
 2. Navigate to the Local Resources tab page by pressing CTRL+TAB as
 many times as required.
 3. Activate the Settings button in the Remote Audio group (shortcut:
 ALT+S).
 4. Select the radio button labelled Play on this computer in the
 Remote Audio Playback group (shortcut: ALT+P) and activate the OK
 button.

 Back to the Remote Desktop Connection dialog box, specify the
 connection details on the General tab page of the dialog box and
 connect. When connected, NVDA should sstart automatically if you have
 ticked the check box to do so. If it doesn't start then you can type
 NVDA in the Run window of the server and launch it.

 Note that the Start menu of the server can be opened with ALT+HOME if
 it doesn't open with the WINDOWSS key.

 Feel free to revert with queries if any.

 Bhawani Sir

 In Countries Like South Africa, Norway, Denmark have very worth-noting
 seat allocation arrangement in place. Political parties are themselves
 responsible to ensure representation of all sections. In these
 countries Women don't have to seek and fight for reservation in
 parliament. In South Africa, till few months ago, Education minister
 was blind woman. And in Norway, Disabled people fight local election
 in large numbers.
 What I want to convey, its just a matter of political will and right
 intent.
 And I think it is very much possible that blind people will be  MPs
 and MLAs, then will play an effective role in future in India also.
 We as a whole, need to introspect do we ever show our strength as
 politically active citizens?
 Do we ever make policy-makers and politicians realise look we are also
 potential electorates? and can help in swinging the table?
 Better we raise our own voice and don't become subjects of others as
 was reflected when Salman Khursheed's wife Louis Khursheed's NGO was
 in question and Arvind Khejriwal used this opportunity to cash in the
 moment. but Now Tickets are being given, but where is disabled
 candidate contesting on behalf of AAP?
 And yes, as far as NGOs are concerned, Most of the NGOs are
 individual-centric as mentioned by Nilika Mehrotra in her piece
 'Disability Movement in India: Politics and Practice'.
 I'm pasting few sentences from the piece very interesting read indeed:
 'Post the PWD Act, in fact, a large number of disability issues
 related NGOs have been set up. Many are small in size; the smaller
 ones are flexible in terms of receiving funds and moving from project
 to project and are not necessarily directed in their actions by the
 state. But, these groups also suffer from personality cults and remain
 leader centred. Ghai (2003) argues that disability rights
 organizations are dominated by the concerns of middle-class men.
 The problem, however, arises when their fight for 'disability rights'
 subsumes agendas that are visible and significant only for the very
 privileged of the disabled. Concessions in air travel, hotels, and
 special parking facilities, though undeniably necessary, are
 meaningful only to a selected population of the disabled. The truth is
 that these issues do not resonate in the lives of the majority of
 disabled who are further marginalized by virtue of their class, caste,
 rural or urban residence, and most strikingly, gender. What is and
 should be more significant for them are the issues of education,
 employment, residence, technological aids, and accessibility, to name
 a few. The reality, however, is that the majority of the disabled are
 still fighting to secure the 'bare minimum'. (Mehrotra, 2013).

Dear All
Nobody wants to begg, but hunger and burning stomach compell many to do so.
We should respect these blind beggars, who are in absense of any
elementary support by family and the state are compelled to begg for
alms. they are fighting for bare minimum.There are thousands who are
forced to begg like them.
Can we do anything for them?
They are six blind men, 2 Aged around thirty, two mid thirties and
other two above forty.. Two are holding dirty rounded clowths and
others have stranded their palms in anticipation of money and food and
singing in corus.

Please if possible supply few data/surveys done on blind beggars in
Indian cities I'm writing one piece on blind beggars for one national
Indian Magazine. Please if you know any locality in Delhi where blind
beggars live in groups then also inform me.

 Yes, I agree with Shyam Sir.
 Rather than reading cartoons just read the news.
 If you want something funny watch Comedy Nights With Kapil.
 There is no need for newspaper cartoons.
 Please take my remarks in a friendly manner.

[AI] Fwd: Readit Scholar HD

2013-11-18 Thread shyam sharma
-- Forwarded message --
From: Sparsh Products sparshprodu...@gmail.com
Date: Mon, 18 Nov 2013 22:50:26 +0530
Subject: Readit Scholar HD
To: Sparsh Products sparshprodu...@gmail.com

Sparsh Products, Dehradun presents Readit Scholar HD. It is the world's
first A3 Instant Reader and Scanner for both closeup and distant objects. It
also is a CCTV magnifier with Distance  Self Viewing Magnifications.



Features

Readit Scholar HD features many benefits over other digital capture systems
and even more over standard laptop / desktop video magnifiers:

*   Compact with a folded size of just 28 x 17 x 4.5cm (11 x 6.7 x 1.8
inches)
*   Set up for document capturing, the camera is just 36 cm tall (14.2
inches).
*   Automatic switching between close-up and distance viewing modes as
the camera head is lifted.
*   720p (1280x720 resolution) up to 60 fps via single USB 2.0
connection (Core i3 processor required for 60 fps live view at full
resolution).
*   Open base design means it's easy to handwrite and read in the
traditional video magnifier way, without the base getting in the way of the
paper or book.
*   16 MP sensor with A3 capture area down to 6pt text
*   Zoomed in, 4pt text can be captured and read with 100% accuracy.
*   21x Optical zoom (larger than any other camera)
*   The camera is optically and digitally stabilised (a first for our
industry) meaning the Scholar HD is far less prone to shake and wobble than
any other product on the market.
*   The combination of the 16 MP sensor, 21x optical zoom, optical and
digital stabilisation means it can perform OCR at distance (for whiteboards
and projectors) further away than a human with 20:20 vision can see - this
is a unique feature again.
*   Full whiteboard and projector screen capture for easy navigation
with trackpad / mouse, removes the need for the end user to constantly track
around the board by holding and repositioning the camera, even if OCR is not
possible (on pictures or non computer based text).
*   Adjustable length, integrated USB cable - again this is unique.
*   Includes magnetic positioning guide with three positions: Storage,
A4 (Letter), A3 (11 x 17) for easy positioning of documents for blind and
well as low vision users.



Find attached the product brochure.



The video showing the demonstration of the product is given below:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/7dubzamouay7a8a/Readit-Scholar-HD-Demonstration%20
Video.webm



The price of the product is Rs. 2,20,000/-, though high, but an ideal spent
for any individual/organization considering the multifaceted benefits.

In case of any query or information required please let us know.

With regards,



Sparsh

3.   Due to ill-informed in-charges, they are not assigned job profiles
where they have least constraints. 

Present Scenario:
Organizations working for blind people had taken initiatives to empower
visually impaired bankers at their workplace but there is considerable scope
that needs to be streamlined in this direction. It has been observed that
many visually impaired persons after joining banks are EITHER not aware
about job profiles that are suitable for them, or they succumb to the
apprehensions of their colleagues who are not aware about the enabling
technology available for the blind persons. 

Innovative Step:
1. The Assistive Technology helpline of the National Association for the
Blind
Delhi will conduct the first workshop in this series on 14th December2013
from 2.30 PM to 5.30 PM. Young Visually impaired bankers and IBPS qualified
candidates are invited to participate in this workshop. 
2. This interactive session on empowering strategies for young visually
impaired bankers intents to provide a platform to share the opportunities
available for visually impaired persons in banking sector. 
Who can attend? 
1.  Young visually impaired bankers who have joined the industry during
the last five years. Please note that in this workshop we are focusing on
the new entrants to the banking industry which are reported to be facing lot
of challenges. 
2.  IBPS qualified candidates aspiring to join bank jobs.
Line of Action:
Demonstration and Discussion on following topics will be held in this
interactive session 
1.  Possible job profiles for VI bankers 
2.  Challenges in different job profiles  
3.  Empowering tools.
4.  Tips on accessing bank packages with screen reading software. 
5.  Overcoming barriers.
6.  Success stories. 
Please register for this workshop before 7th December 2013 with the NAB
Helpline by email or phone. There is no fee for participating in this
workshop. No accommodation or reimbursement of travel expenses will be
provided by NAB Delhi for this workshop. Please hurry, only 35 persons can
be accommodated in this event.

Highlights:
The workshop will be facilitated by Dr. Ashwini Kumar Agarwal, MR. Prashant
Ranjan Verma, (Joint secretary at NAB Delhi) and Mr. Rahul Gambhir. Dr.
Agarwal has rose to the rank of chief manager with Punjab national bank and
is associated with the bank since 1987 and presently posted at zonal
training center as senior faculty. Mr. Verma is an expert in the area of
accessibility and has provided solutions to many workplace challenges. Rahul
Gambhir is assistant manager in union bank of India. He has innovated by
making a presentation before the union bank of India faculty members to
include UBI visually impaired staff in banking and facilitated a workshop on
accessible banking in October 2013. More resource persons from the banking
industry will be invited to provide their inputs.

[AI] Good news for blind engineering aspirants-changes in JEE Main guidelines

2013-11-18 Thread Kartik Sawhney
Hi all,

It gives me immense pleasure to share with you that CBSE has amended
its rule for Joint Entrance Examination (main), the entrance
examination for most of the tech schools in the country (also a
qualifying exam for the IITs). Until last year, the Board allowed a
non-Science scribe (from Commerce (without Mathematics) or Humanities)
stream, and that too from class XI (two years junior to the
candidate). this had several issues, most notably that the scribe will
not be familiar with the technical symbols on the test, and hence will
not be able to convey those to the candidate.

According to the information brochure for JEE Main 2014, there is no
eligibility criteria for a scribe. Moreover, the candidate can opt to
bring his/her own scribe. In case the candidate opts to use a scribe
provided by the centre superintendent of the test centre, the
superintendent needs to ensure that both the scribe and the candidate
meet at least an hour before the examination to get comfortable with
each other.

Unfortunately, nothing has been done to make the diagrams on the test
accessible. Further, JEE Advanced (the entrance exam for IITs), allows
a Science student as a scribe, but from class XI. It also does not
allow the candidate to brin his/her own scribe. Despite all of this, I
feel we are close. I would urge the organisations working for the
blind to take this forward, and help future Science aspirants get the
benefits of the elite education imparted at these institutes.

The information brochures for both the exams are located on their
respective websites at http://jeemain.nic.in and
http://jeeadv.iitd.ac.in.

Best,

Re: [AI] Good news for blind engineering aspirants-changes in JEE Main guidelines

2013-11-18 Thread Srikanth Bolla
Hi Karthik,
How are you? I am fine. I tried calling you but I could not catch you
yesterday. Can you send me your number on my personal email? Thank you so
much for sharing this news.  Although this is great news for some,   in
general, this is not helpful I believe. If you are allowed to bring your own
scribe, then how can we make sure the   real talent?  For example, I can
bring science student who was topper earlier and not study and make him or
her write the entire exam.  Let me tell you. In India many people who are
passing out of M.A and PG's are not even qualified for plus2 level. They
don't even know basic math. I have five of my employees who passed out of PG
but they don't know basic additions. Without knowing anything, how did they
pass out from a reputed university? This is because of own scribe.  I feel
like we are going back rather than going forward. I agree that the scribe
should be from the same background but the scribe should be allotted by the
examination center and scribe and the student should not have any previous
contact other than one hour meeting before the exam if the student prefers.
If I was given my own scribe, I would have made state rank in plus1 and 2.
This is the same case with everyone. So I completely agree with you about
the diagrams. They have to do something about it but own scribe idea is
completely in favor of people who are taking the exam. Let me give you the
example, most blind students are poor in solving algebraic or differential
equations. Even I was pretty bad during my plus1. If you have own scribe, we
end up just making him solve all math equations for us which is not fare. So
I really advise organizations to fight for equal rights but not special
favorable rights.   I also was forced to help my class mates to pass public
exams. For example, we were all put in a single room in the examination
center. Then I use to circulate my answer sheet across the room for all my
class mates to copy. This is the real situation with most blind schools.
Why should be put in a single room illegally by corrupting the invigilators?
Can't we go to our assigned centers? Why do we need this? Are we not
capable? Can't we prove our own talent? If we always want special extra
privileges, then we will never compete with main stream world.  If we want
sympathy and special extra privileges, we don't have right  to blame
mainstream society for not giving us equal opportunities. Of course you may
score excellent and attend world class universities but there we will end up
failing. Sadly, this is what is happening with employers. I forwarded many
blind students to seamen's, Sysco and GE but many of them failed in the
interview because they don't even have basic formalities and skills. When
you look at the Resume, you see big degrees but the stuff is nil. Take my
own case for example. Sadly, I had to fire two of my blind employees because
they were not even able to count 25 pieces of products and pack in a plastic
cover even after continuous months of training. Another example is, one of
my employee is not able to tie a bundle with rope even after one month
training.   But do you know? Both of them cleared M.A and PG. do you think
that education is useful for them? If they can't count even 20 numbers, who
will give job for them? On the other hand, all these organizations will
fight for equal rights in everytnbing. If people like these does not prove,
who else will get an opportunity? So all, I request you to realize the
reality and work accordingly. Sorry for being direct but this is out of real
and practical experience. Regards,

Hi all,

It gives me immense pleasure to share with you that CBSE has amended its
rule for Joint Entrance Examination (main), the entrance examination for
most of the tech schools in the country (also a qualifying exam for the
IITs). Until last year, the Board allowed a non-Science scribe (from
Commerce (without Mathematics) or Humanities) stream, and that too from
class XI (two years junior to the candidate). this had several issues, most
notably that the scribe will not be familiar with the technical symbols on
the test, and hence will not be able to convey those to the candidate.

According to the information brochure for JEE Main 2014, there is no
eligibility criteria for a scribe. Moreover, the candidate can opt to bring
his/her own scribe. In case the candidate opts to use a scribe provided by
the centre superintendent of the test centre, the superintendent needs to
ensure that both the scribe and the candidate meet at least an hour before
the examination to get comfortable with each other.

Hi Srikanth,

While I agree with you for most part, I strongly feel that in
competitive exams like IIT-JEE and other entrance exams where speed is
utmost important, it's important that you've worked with the scribe
for quite sometime in advance. consider this: you are not allowed the
use of any assistive technology for scratch work, and you're trying to
solve a question in linear algebra (say calculating the inverse of a
matrix), it'll take a very long time explaining the scribe how the
inverse is to be calculated. Instead, you would probably want to walk
him through the process real quick, and since he's already worked with
you on a similar problem, he can understand what you imply. Or, maybe,
consider a question involving optical isomerism in Organic Chemistry,
you would probably want the configuration to be described in a
particular non-ambiguous way, rather than wasting your time trying to
figure out how you want your scribe to explain that to you. To curve
unfair means, it is invigilation which needs to be strengthened. Isn't
that done to curve the use of unfair means for sighted students? Then,
why not for us?

I'm aware of the situation that you've described, and it is indeed
deplorable. However, making such norms that inhibit genuine talent at
the cost of trying to ensure a fair exam is not, in my view, the best
way to go forward. Either we need to allow assistive technology to
enable the blind student to take the test independently and just rely
on the scribe to bubble the responses, or we need to provide the
candidate with a comfortable atmosphere with strong invigilation. BTW,
I, too, am totally against segregating blind students for the purposes
of taking exams.

 Hello Bhavya

 I don't know if I remember it correctly. When I was studying in 4th
 grade in Sri Ramana Maha Rishi Academy for the Blind, I seemed to have
 observed a couple of blind fellows playing the game on a table.

 I don't know whether it was table-tennis or what but it felt to me as
 though an audible cricket ball was used in the game and I could hear
 the ball being rolled on the table. I think they were hitting with
 something that resembled a big wooden slate there were holding in
 their hands, standing at either end of the table. I think that was
 probably the tennis racket.

 It was a rectangular table and the players stood on either end with
 their rackets and when one player hit the ball, it would go rolling
 over to the opposite player, and when the opposite player hit the
 ball, it would come back rolling over again - so forth. Occasionally
 the ball would drop on the floor and people would cheer the fellow who
 hit it. So I assumed he scored 1 point over his opponent.
 As for me, I could only observe without asking any questions because
 to be honest, I wasn't supposed to be there – I had excused myself
 from a boring class. I didn't want to grab any attention on myself at
 that moment.

 Q2. What modifications are there in the rules?
 Q3. What different equipment needs to be purchased for efficient

 I am eagerly waiting for good and enthusiastic responses.
 Any assistance or guidance would be really appreciated.

Re: [AI] Good news for blind engineering aspirants-changes in JEE Main guidelines

2013-11-18 Thread Srikanth Bolla
Dear Karthik,
   I agree with you in terms of working out math or chemistry questions.
But please remember, scribes duty is to verbatim read the question and take
down the answer as you say  but not imply in his own words.  He is also not
supposed to reread the question in simple words or explain you the situation
in his or her own words. Do you know? We make mistakes just because we don't
understand  the way  the question  is formatted though we know the concept
and the correct answer. This happens mainly in the coding. Implications can
be in many ways.  Even if I give him wrong final value but the process is
correct, do you suggest that he should fix my final value by implying? Sited
students will calculate the answer and mark on the answer sheet without
scratch paper, so why not us in the mind? We can give the scribe final
answer. If you tell the scribe to do the problem, he may make math error or
if you have to calculate that problem, you might make simple math error
which might get you wrong answer.  Take your example, calculating the
inverse of a 3/3 or above, the process is extremely simple but we end up
making math errors due to lot of numbers. So this is something scribe cannot
do for us. So indirectly, we are asking the scribe to solve a problem for us
which is not fare. Since he worked with us before does not mean that he
should imply that you know the answer and write. In nervousness and under
time constraint, we end up making silly mistakes though we know the correct
answer. So why scribe should fix those mistakes? When sited students don't
have this competitive advantage of working with a person who knows the
answers, then why us? If you give me this privilege, I can go and crack
IIT-JE or gate or cat, or   CA or IAS or ICW or any exam you can think of
without any problem. I have people who went through these exams and did not
clear or cleared. Since they know how to work on these exams, I can maybe
hit top rank or at least clear without much of my talent.  Do you think this
is not possible? We are talking about being fare but how many people will
use this opportunity fairly? If people are already using these kind of
opportunities well, then why problems of getting job or competing with main
stream society?  I know many people who did not even go to college  for one
days but got 90%. Do you think this is possible? I do however; understand
that the visual part is bad for us. for example, when I took SAT, globe
detective agency administered the test. They sat with us for the entire
duration of the test looking for the similarities of my answers and scribe's
pen marks. So at least there should be someone proctoring the exam when own
scribe is given or it should be videotaped to ensure fare exam. people can
find 100 ways to miss use the opportunity. So before we make guidelines, we
have to consider all possibilities. I just would like to remind that finding
the invers of a matrix might be tricky for a blind person but it would be
really easy since the sited student can see the numbers.  I also propose
that the question paper should be given in brail audio or in print. Then the
students can choose to opt his or her preference. Then he or she should be
able to record answers in to blank audio recorder.  This way, he or she can
walk through the entire process  so that the valuators can consider even if
the final answer is wrong. When we are talking about  competitive exams like
IIT, CA and CAT, most questions  other than  maybe few sections are multiple
choice. So  a student can be given a scribe for scribing the essay or
writing part and remaining  questions, the student has to answer. As I
mentioned above, the definition of the scribe is to read questions verbatim
as on the test paper. he or she is not supposed to explain. So when test
paper is read by an experienced person in to audio tape or record, then that
will be equal to a science or subject oriented scribe. If we don't make
strict but fare accommodations, then people will continue to miss use. For
example, as I mentioned, at MIT, I will not even know who  the scribe is
till I enter the room. then  we have to turn the video recorder on before we
begin the exam. we are not supposed to talk  each other about test
questions. Of course this is bit harsh but I believe this is fare. Regards,

While I agree with you for most part, I strongly feel that in competitive
exams like IIT-JEE and other entrance exams where speed is utmost important,
it's important that you've worked with the scribe for quite sometime in
advance. consider this: you are not allowed the use of any assistive
technology for scratch 

Re: [AI] Good news for blind engineering aspirants-changes in JEE Main guidelines

2013-11-18 Thread Kartik Sawhney
Hi Srikanth,

I may point out that the sighted students have the privilege of using
a scratch paper for Mathematical computations. These exams do not just
involve an OMR sheet, but provide you a lot of space for rough work
throughout the test booklet. If sighted are allowed to perform scratch
work, then there should not be a problem to have blind students do the
same. Personally, I cannot keep track of a 4×4 matrix, its transpose,
cofactor matrix and then the inverse in my mind (and so cannot the
brightest student in my class). I need someone to keep record of these
for me, especially since I have no tools or assistive technology. When
a sighted studet is not expected to keep track of these values, then
why should a blind student be expected to do so? Also, your definition
of scribe is rather narrow. If you look up the definition of scribe
(the ETS version which is followed for the conduct of the SAT test),
you will realize that it permits scratch work in the absence of other
tools.

Also, realize that there is a difference in rephrasing a question,
solving a question and keeping track of the intermediate steps. the
first two are absolutely unacceptable, but the last should be
absolutely fine. Further, we need to be very clear about the objective
of the test in question. The IIT-JEE does not seek to measure your
proficiency at calculations (6th grade exams are good for that); it
seeks to measure your conceptual ability. Having someone calculate
4×6.022×10^23/6.626×10^-34×3×10^8 in the absence of taylor frame or
spreadsheet application is fine in my view. However, the scribe
plugging in those values without the candidate asking him to do so may
be construed as unfair.

Of course, the ideal mode will be to have the exam in Braille, E-text
or audio (fortunately, that's slowly happening; I took my Board exams
using a computer without a scribe).

Best,

 Dear Karthik,
I agree with you in terms of working out math or chemistry questions.
 But please remember, scribes duty is to verbatim read the question and take
 down the answer as you say  but not imply in his own words.  He is also not
 supposed to reread the question in simple words or explain you the
 situation
 in his or her own words. Do you know? We make mistakes just because we
 don't
 understand  the way  the question  is formatted though we know the concept
 and the correct answer. This happens mainly in the coding. Implications can
 be in many ways.  Even if I give him wrong final value but the process is
 correct, do you suggest that he should fix my final value by implying?
 Sited
 students will calculate the answer and mark on the answer sheet without
 scratch paper, so why not us in the mind? We can give the scribe final
 answer. If you tell the scribe to do the problem, he may make math error or
 if you have to calculate that problem, you might make simple math error
 which might get you wrong answer.  Take your example, calculating the
 inverse of a 3/3 or above, the process is extremely simple but we end up
 making math errors due to lot of numbers. So this is something scribe
 cannot
 do for us. So indirectly, we are asking the scribe to solve a problem for
 us
 which is not fare. Since he worked with us before does not mean that he
 should imply that you know the answer and write. In nervousness and under
 time constraint, we end up making silly mistakes though we know the correct
 answer. So why scribe should fix those mistakes? When sited students don't
 have this competitive advantage of working with a person who knows the
 answers, then why us? If you give me this privilege, I can go and crack
 IIT-JE or gate or cat, or   CA or IAS or ICW or any exam you can think of
 without any problem. I have people who went through these exams and did not
 clear or cleared. Since they know how to work on these exams, I can maybe
 hit top rank or at least clear without much of my talent.  Do you think
 this
 is not possible? We are talking about being fare but how many people will
 use this opportunity fairly? If people are already using these kind of
 opportunities well, then why problems of getting job or competing with main
 stream society?  I know many people who did not even go to college  for one
 days but got 90%. Do you think this is possible? I do however; understand
 that the visual part is bad for us. for example, when I took SAT, globe
 detective agency administered the test. They sat with us for the entire
 duration of the test looking for the similarities of my answers and
 scribe's
 pen marks. So at least there should be someone proctoring the exam when own
 scribe is given or it should be videotaped to ensure fare exam. people can
 find 100 ways to miss use the opportunity. So before we make

Re: [AI] Good news for blind engineering aspirants-changes in JEE Main guidelines

2013-11-18 Thread Srikanth Bolla
Dear Karthik,
   I am not here to test the remembering abilities of blind people. Even I
cannot remember multiple math steps in my mind. For that matter, I will
trouble my scribe to read again and again when it comes to long messy
equations. I am sorry. Maybe I was not clear enough. Yes you are absolutely
right. Scribe can track your intermediary steps and read them back to you
any number of times but the scribe is not supposed to perform calculations
on your behalf unless you tell specifics.  In my view, scribe should not
perform simple math calculation you quoted as that can be done by a blind
person in the presence of a tailor frame.  I do understand that IIT or other
exams may not test you long calculations but if they do, there is a reason
and every student is expected to perform those calculations on own. So I am
not sure whether I agree with your statement which says that thee simple and
long calculations can be done   by the scribe. So I feel organizations
should work with the examination boards to allow assistive technology with
high security measures. Then wherever sited students are doing scratch work
or small calculations, blind person can do them on the assistive technology.
For example you might tell him to write down  1/2*5/7 but you may not tell
him  the final answer so the scribe should  be able to ask you for the
answer and not imply just because he or she worked with you previously.
Of course where ever there is opportunity for scratch work, then blind
students should be given to take tailor frame or computer with imposed
restrictions. I know we are talking about specifics but let’s come back to
the big picture. I quoted number of problems of having an own scribe. So can
you please site reasons  for requesting own scribe if the examination center
can provide scribe from the same subject background and can facilitate one
hour previous interaction before the exam? You are a great man Karthik. You
are an inspiration for real hard working blind people in India.  I am amazed
by your use of computer from the first standard. People like you should
strive to convince examination boards to allow assistive technology or
accessible tactile tools so that they can create fare experience for blind
student. Finally, own scribe is a bad idea according to me. By the way, can
you please explain how you were able to use computer? For example, did you
go through any security checks before the exam or did they give you the
computer?

Hi Srikanth,

CBSE provided their own computer during the Board examinations
alongwith two invigilators-they kind of overdid it in my view, but it
is okay.

As far as the problem with the exam centre providing their own scribe
goes, I will quote a personal experience. When I took the National
level Science Talent Search Examination back in 2011, I was given a
scribe from class X. When it came to describing diagrams as no tactile
diagrams were provided, he tried his level best, but was unable to
explain most of the diagrams. Similarly, a question involved working
with finding the hybridization of various carbon atoms. That was
perhaps the simplest question on the test, but I lost points because
he could not convey the structure to me. We've got to agree that some
people are good at describing stuff, while the others are not. It
shouldn't be the fault of the candidate if the scribe is not a good
describer, right?

Also, working together for six hours is not something that easy. My
instructions should be understood by the scribe as quickly as
possible, as any delay is my loss. What if a thing as simple as read
the element a2,2 may be misinterpreted by the scribe? You don't have
time during the test to explain him how the matrix terminology works.
Or, consider e-z stereo isomers. Sometimes, it becomes important to
use appropriate terminology to convey things, otherwise it might
become difficult to complete the exam within the stipulated time.

Of course, situation in the United States is pretty different. All the
testing agencies provide you verbal descriptions and tactile graphics,
while also allowing assistive technology, thus eliminating the need of
having a scribe of your own choice. If assistive technology is
permited, then for sure, the choice of bringing in your own scribe is
an unreasonable one. However, until that happens, it is immportant
that this choice be available.

Another pragmatic alternative could be creation of a pool of scribes,
so that if one does not work, the other could be tried. This, again,
looks hard to implement in the near future (authorities manage to get
one scribe after so much difficulty that a pool seems out of
question).

At the same time, I don't understand the reservations in strengthening
invigilation and allowing any scribe. Why not record the entire test
session and review it (as happens at MIT)? Why not seat the scribe and
the candidate in such a way that no communication can go unnoticed
(this happened with me once)? If this cannot be done, either because
of callousness on the part of the invigilator or because of some other
reason, then I am sorry to say that the entire concept of invigilation
is flawed. The only thing that I am stressing is that I wouldn't want
a single genuinely talented student to lose out because of any
arbitrary norms or lack of appropriate accommodations. A test is a
platform to showcase your abilities; I wouldn't want anything to be a
hindrance for a blind student.

Another interesting point worth taking into account: allowing
assistive technology may not be as simple as one may think. IITs
submitted that they were trying to get tactile graphics ready for JEE
Advanced 2013 in August 2012. They continued to maintain the same
stand even in April 2013. Finally, they submitted that it will be hard
to implement owing to security considerations.

 Dear Karthik,
I am not here to test the remembering abilities of blind people. Even I
 cannot remember multiple math steps in my mind. For that matter, I will
 trouble my scribe to read again and again when it comes to long messy
 equations. I am sorry. Maybe I was not clear enough. Yes you are absolutely
 right. Scribe can track your intermediary steps and read them back to you
 any number of times but the scribe is not supposed to perform calculations
 on your behalf unless you tell specifics.  In my view, scribe should not
 perform simple math calculation you quoted as that can be done by a blind
 person in the presence of a tailor frame.  I do understand that IIT or
 other
 exams may not test you long calculations but if they do, there is a reason
 and every student is expected to perform those calculations on own. So I am
 not sure whether I agree with your statement which says that thee simple
 and
 long calculations can be done   by the scribe. So I feel organizations
 should work with the examination boards to allow assistive technology with
 high security measures. Then wherever sited students are doing scratch work
 or small calculations, blind person can do them on the assistive
 technology.
 For example you might tell him to write down  1/2*5/7 but you may not tell
 him  the final answer so the scribe should  be able to ask you for the
 answer and not imply just because he or she worked with you previously.
 Of course where ever there is opportunity for scratch work, then blind

Dear Karthik,
   I am thrilled to get your detailed perspective on this problem.  I hope
we both are not the only once writing back and forth and maybe wasting time
on this subject. Nice to know that CBSC gave their own computer and
invigilation.  Sorry they did over in your case. Maybe this might be the
first time so it's just due to lack of awareness. Let me point out your
concern that no talented student should miss out the opportunity due to
lack of accommodations
I am also 100% with you on this. Personally, I lost so much due to lack of
proper accommodations in science subjects. Even I don't want any talented
student to  get hindered by the  discriminatory  procedures, however, I
strictly don't want any  unqualified student to pass out the exams with the
help from scribes.  Talented students struggling are rare but unqualified
and unskilled people getting 100's are seen   in high percentage. Of course
people on this list might debate on this point but once own consciousness
will tell the truth. Personally, I know unqualified people passing out with
more than 80%. Don't you think this is bad? I 100% agree with your point of
recording the entire session and allow own scribe.  Then since there will be
video and audio, student and the scribe will have very less chance to cheat.
Recording the session also can bring out valid questions or concerns from
both parties. Then concern authorities can review and make necessary
accommodations in the education curriculum or in the examination system. I
know all this will not happen overnight but before we ask for own scribe, we
have to bring out these points.  Everyone should be aware that bringing own
scribe means carrying extra responsibilities. Some of the specific questions
we are talking are more for science students.  But in India for everything
people are requesting own scribes. For example, do you think bank exams or
IAS or other groups or teacher entrance involve any scientific notations? I
don't think so. If I am wrong, people can correct me. If   the exam is
mainly literature based, then why do you need your own scribe? Same with
other non-science subjects. For nonscience subjects, you don't even need
scribe from the same background but I can take that easy. But I completely
oppose the idea of own scribe. Getting own scribe is simply an excuse to
pass without working for it. Mainly, assistive technology should be
permitted rather than own scribe.  I don't think explaining about the
diagram or the molecular model is the duty of the scribe. Again, scribe's
duty is to read the question as given on the test paper and record answers
and take down scratch work as you say. So to overcome this problem, tactile
diagrams should be provided. Do you know we have pressure sensitive plastic
paper and the rubber boards? The tool is called draftsman tactile board.
This is wonderful to draw images on the spot. Each student should be given
or allowed to carry these kinds of boards to the exam. Then the scribe can
draw the diagram given on the test paper instantly and lead you to feel the
diagram but not explain in his own words. This will avoid the images
problem. Asking alternative questions for diagrams is also kind of an excuse
in my view. I do understand the miss interpretations of terminology.  That
is why we are requesting the scribe   from the same background. Scribe can
be bit higher level than you but the scribe should not be known to the
student.  Another problem is that scribe's slow writing and time constraint.
So I strongly recommend that double time should be given for each exam. To
overcome miss communication or terminology errors, center should arrange
proctor who will oversee the exam. That Procter should be from the concerned
subject. Then if the scribe has any questions. they can refer to the
proctor. Finally, I don't understand officials view. They said providing a
tactile graphics is a security  concern but don't  they think allowing own
scribe is even worse?  Thank you.

CBSE provided their own computer during the Board examinations alongwith two

As far as the problem with the exam centre providing their own scribe goes,
I will quote a personal experience. When I took the National level Science
Talent Search Examination back in 2011, I was given a scribe from class X.
When it came to describing diagrams as no tactile diagrams were provided, he
tried his level best, but was unable to explain most of the diagrams.

In web sites like money control.com, the web page gets refreshed on a

Besides, are there any tools for technical analysis that are

If anybody in the list is actively investing in the markets, I would

kind of Work oriented trainings for those who are interested?
 Mostly, these kind of people don't like  to go for work. If that is 
the case,

 We can support them to get goods to sale on trains or in bus-stands.
 To eradicate them completely, We can suggest the orphanages to take 
care of them.



With care and regards,

Dear Avinashji,
Maybe we can help them but we don't know why they are begging though.
They might not be interested to work rather beg. So we have to study them
and the situations that lead to their begging. I have a friend  who runs
orphan home in Hyderabad. I can request him to  admit these people there and
then I can create employment opportunities in  our company. if you can get
me some details, then I might be able to help these people. thank you.

Subject: [AI] Blind Beggars in Banglore

Dear All
Nobody wants to begg, but hunger and burning stomach compell many to do so.
We should respect these blind beggars, who are in absense of any elementary
support by family and the state are compelled to begg for alms. they are
fighting for bare minimum.There are thousands who are forced to begg like
them.
Can we do anything for them?
They are six blind men, 2 Aged around thirty, two mid thirties and other two
above forty.. Two are holding dirty rounded clowths and others have stranded
their palms in anticipation of money and food and singing in corus.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0pEmOXC3M8w
Please if possible supply few data/surveys done on blind beggars in Indian
cities I'm writing one piece on blind beggars for one national Indian
Magazine. Please if you know any locality in Delhi where blind beggars live
in groups then also inform me.

2013-11-18 Thread Asudani, Rajesh
Well, not writing a detailed reply but why do you need own scribe if the exam 
is non-scince subjects, literature based?
Please think twice.
A scribe always wrote Yeast, when I said, Yeats
I think this suffices to explain my point.
So, science is not the only subject requiring your own scribe.
Wavelength matters and no authority can impose scribe on us, more often than 
not, they impose utterly inefficient scribes.

Dear Karthik,
   I am thrilled to get your detailed perspective on this problem.  I hope
we both are not the only once writing back and forth and maybe wasting time
on this subject. Nice to know that CBSC gave their own computer and
invigilation.  Sorry they did over in your case. Maybe this might be the
first time so it's just due to lack of awareness. Let me point out your
concern that no talented student should miss out the opportunity due to
lack of accommodations
I am also 100% with you on this. Personally, I lost so much due to lack of
proper accommodations in science subjects. Even I don't want any talented
student to  get hindered by the  discriminatory  procedures, however, I
strictly don't want any  unqualified student to pass out the exams with the
help from scribes.  Talented students struggling are rare but unqualified
and unskilled people getting 100's are seen   in high percentage. Of course
people on this list might debate on this point but once own consciousness
will tell the truth. Personally, I know unqualified people passing out with
more than 80%. Don't you think this is bad? I 100% agree with your point of
recording the entire session and allow own scribe.  Then since there will be
video and audio, student and the scribe will have very less chance to cheat.
Recording the session also can bring out valid questions or concerns from
both parties. Then concern authorities can review and make necessary
accommodations in the education curriculum or in the examination system. I
know all this will not happen overnight but before we ask for own scribe, we
have to bring out these points.  Everyone should be aware that bringing own
scribe means carrying extra responsibilities. Some of the specific questions
we are talking are more for science students.  But in India for everything
people are requesting own scribes. For example, do you think bank exams or
IAS or other groups or teacher entrance involve any scientific notations? I
don't think so. If I am wrong, people can correct me. If   the exam is
mainly literature based, then why do you need your own scribe? Same with
other non-science subjects. For nonscience subjects, you don't even need
scribe from the same background but I can take that easy. But I completely
oppose the idea of own scribe. Getting own scribe is simply an excuse to
pass without working for it. Mainly, assistive technology should be
permitted rather than own scribe.  I don't think explaining about the
diagram or the molecular model is the duty of the scribe. Again, scribe's
duty is to read the question as given on the test paper and record answers
and take down scratch work as you say. So to overcome this problem, tactile
diagrams should be provided. Do you know we have pressure sensitive plastic
paper and the rubber boards? The tool is called draftsman tactile board.
This is wonderful to draw images on the spot. Each student should be given
or allowed to carry these kinds of boards to the exam. Then the scribe can
draw the diagram given on the test paper instantly and lead you to feel the
diagram but not explain in his own words. This will avoid the images
problem. Asking alternative questions for diagrams is also kind of an excuse
in my view. I do understand the miss interpretations of terminology.  That
is why we are requesting the scribe   from the same background. Scribe can
be bit higher level than you but the scribe should not be known to the
student.  Another problem is that scribe's slow writing and time constraint.
So I strongly recommend that double time should be given for each exam. To
overcome miss communication or terminology errors, center should arrange
proctor who will oversee the exam. That Procter should be from the concerned
subject. Then if the scribe has any questions. they can refer to the
proctor. Finally, I don't understand officials view. They said providing a
tactile graphics is a security  concern but don't  they think allowing own
scribe is even worse?  Thank you.
Regards,

HI,
   We did not mean   we need own scribe for science subjects. I made a
comparison saying that for non-science subjects, there is no need for own
scribe.  Of course, you may request scribe from the center with same
background but even that same background is not needed to write eats or any
other words. If you think the scribe is making mistake, you are supposed to
spell the words. In fact, it's not scribes duty to write correct spellings.
Scribe has all rights to ask you to spell anything that is not clear. So
this is why, we should all promote the use of computers to take exams. Or we
can use recorders to record answers. I hope this will help you understand.
But I am again reiterating that requesting own scribe in many case is just
to escape and pass out. Regards, -Original Message-
