The Braillenote Evolve
Monday September 14, 2026 11:00am - 12:00pm EDT
502 East Event Centre
Session Description: 
Ready to transform the way you teach your braille students? Join us for an eye-opening session on the BrailleNote Evolve, the cutting-edge device that combines a laptop-like interface, integrated Braille display, and NVDA screen reader to make accessibility effortless. 

Session Abstract:
Braille documents can be challenging for teachers unfamiliar with Braille code. This presentation will demonstrate how the BrailleNote Evolve—a device combining a laptop-like interface, Braille display, and NVDA screen reader—helps bridge the gap between teachers and students, fostering inclusion and accessibility in the classroom.

Participants will be introduced to the BrailleNote Family of products, the latest in mobile technology for students who are visually impaired. We will explore how these tools integrate with Office 365, enabling seamless collaboration through document sharing, email access, and productivity applications—all designed to support accessible learning environments.

Session Goals: 
  1. We will demonstrate at least three specific ways the BrailleNote Evolve integrates with existing classroom technology (e.g., Office 365, document sharing, email access) and outline two workflow improvements for teachers unfamiliar with Braille,
  2. Participants will Identify at least two specific features from the BrailleNote Family and describe one practical application that supports their students.
  3. We will identify one task that using the Braillenote Evolve will promote inclusion and collaboration between the student and their peers.
