Studies have shown that Braille literacy is directly related to educational achievement, professional outcomes, and adult reading habits for the visually impaired. While many are committed to reversing the decline in Braille literacy, students must have the proper tools to promote learning and use Braille proficiently. These tools must allow students to view and create presentations, formatted documents, and advanced math in Braille, and must provide teachers tools to adequately monitor and direct student learning. This presentation explores the abilities of HIMS notetakers to meet the needs of today's blind and visually impaired students and professionals through its advanced features. It also discusses the role of the notetaker in promoting Braille literacy and accessible education for blind students, and demonstrate the Braille Sense as an educational toolkit for student learning as well as teacher monitoring and control.
