You can submit an assignment with the screen reader JAWS.

  1. From your course's main page, find the name of the section where the assignment is located. Ask your instructor if you don't know the name of your section.
  2. Use the H key to find the name of the assignment to be submitted. It will be a Heading 3. Press the Enter key on its name to proceed.

    If the Heading 3 of the assignment isn't a link, it means you've selected the wrong link. Ask your instructor for the name of the assignment to look for.
