JAWS Lesson 1.1: More Navigation Basics

Skip to main content

More work with arrows

To review, we've learned how to read the next and previous line, and the previous and next letter, but what about using JAWS to repeat the current line. Picture this, you are innocently reading your history homework, when along comes a text from your best friend. They've got this hilarious story to share with you about what a teacher accidentally did in the hallway after class. Laughter ensues, and of course you forget all about what you just read. So, you press the JAWS key plus the up arrow again to refresh your memory.

Let me repeat. Press the JAWS key plus up arrow to hear the current line over and over and over again.

And over and over...

Okay, moving on. What about navigating by words?

To read the next word, hold the control button and press the right arrow. To read the previous word, hold the control button and press the left arrow.
