MediaVision is constantly trying to make our web content more accessible. We currently are not able to offer text alternatives for all media elements, but our web sites do implement as many section 508 and W3 accessiblity conformance quidelines as possible. In addition we have implemented many of the suggestions made at www dot dive into accessibility dot org. Below are descriptions of some of the features in MediaVision CourseWare. Please feel free to send us feedback to mediavision at case dot edu, or alternately access key 9.
MediaVision CourseWare pages make use of the following access keys. Different browsers have different keyboard combinations for access keys. It is usually Alt plus the access key.
Nearly all fonts are specified with relative sizes. This makes them scalable in all browsers. If you prefer to increase the text size while viewing, the content has been designed to scale gracefully wherever possible.
The images on MediaVision CourseWare have their sizes specified realtive to font size. This will make them scale larger or smaller if text size is increased or decreased. This tip was found at http://www.wats.ca/show.php?contentid=33
MediaVision CourseWare conforms to the W3's XHTML 1.1 Strict Document Type Deffinition. We have also made every attempt to use proper symantics when marking up the content of the page. Tables are only used for tabular data and forms. All other visual layout is done with div elements and style sheets. The remaining content is marked up using conventional paragraph and headline HTML syntax.
