2 What are the problems?
Generally speaking we need to make it possible to access and consume information in a variety of ways.
- All students, but especially those with e.g. Dyslexia, benefit from colourful, interactive, responsive resources with well rendered maths and graphics, enriched with video and audio. Go for it!
- But poorly made resources create practical and technical barriers:
- Complex navigation/accurate input hard using keyboard/pointer only
- Maths needs to be chunkable and navigable for speech, magnification, Braille and small screens
- Use of colour-only to give meaning is a problem
- Raster graphics do not magnify/zoom well
- Responsive pages with multiple foci hard for VI users
