Dr. Robinson demonstrates how to use MathKicker.AI to complete various types of math with NVDA and UEB math. She begins by accessing a math problem in HTML format through a browser. Using outdated software, including NVDA on Windows 10, she shows how even older technology can effectively handle advanced math tasks.
First, Dr. Robinson opens a math problem in Firefox, which currently translates math perfectly. She presses “Control + P” to print the page as a PDF, saving it to her downloads folder. Next, she switches to Chrome using “Windows + 3” and opens Math Kicker.AI, a tool designed for converting math problems. She uses the “Alt + C” command to start the conversion process.
She navigates through MathKicker’s options using the applications key and selects UEB math code with NVDA commands. After selecting the PDF file, she waits for two chimes, indicating the conversion is complete. To begin solving the problem, she turns off the virtual cursor, moves to the problem area, and uses the “F2” key to break down the equation into individual components.
She demonstrates how to solve the problem step by step, using commands like “Alt + B” to apply operations to both sides of the equation. She also uses “Control + R” to replace specific elements in the equation, simplifying the problem as she goes. After completing the math problem, she presses “F9” to review the LaTeX code, reinforcing her understanding of the math.
Dr. Robinson explains how these steps ensure that even visually impaired students can solve advanced math problems with outdated technology. She emphasizes that Math Kicker.AI, combined with NVDA, allows for accurate UEB math transcription, making it accessible to a global audience. She concludes by encouraging viewers to use these methods to handle any type of math problem effectively. More NVDA and UEB Math videos here.
