JAWS and Google Workspace
Welcome to Screen Readers 301! In this course, we'll learn about navigating the Google Workspace with JAWS. There are numerous apps included in the Google Workspace, but this course will focus on the apps that are most frequently used in schools:
- Google Drive
- Google Docs
- Google Slides
- Gmail
Once you learn how to navigate these apps with JAWS, you should be able to apply the same principles to other Google Workspace apps.
