So I'm having a problem in one of my college courses, due to browser-based virtual simulations of real life situations that aren't accessible to my screen reader. The following is part of my professor's response to the email I sent and it's very encouraging isn't it?

Regarding screen reader compatibility, this is one challenge that we have been facing in recent years. Due to the types of tools and technologies that are used, particularly in the security space, sometimes they are designed to not allow screen readers. In fact, screen readers are considered malware in many cases. You may have read about a type of tool/attack called screen scraping, for example.
