Emacspeak Tutorial

This tutorial is aimed at visually impaired students with no prior knowledge of emacs. Young students, under the age of 13, will benefit the most by having a proctor help them with lessons. For older students, a proctor is only required for the initial setup

Each lesson assumes the student has emacspeak loaded correctly.

Lesson 1 - Writing text

Within emacs, start by writing a sentence. You'll notice that as you type, emacs will dictate the character that you're typing. Once you've written a word, emacs will write out the word that you've typed. Pretty cool, huh!
