WEB Accessibility at PCCWeb AccessibilityAdhering to web accessibility guidelines while developingyour online course will benefit all students, including thosewith visual, hearing, mobility and learning disabilities.PCC Web Accessibility GuidelinesThe PCC Accessibility Guidelines for Online Course Content,developed in 2011 and implemented in 2012, are based onthe internationally accepted Web Content AccessibilityGuidelines AA standards (WCAG 2.0).*This handbook is a reference guide. For more information,visit www.pcc.edu/access.* Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.0, W3C World Wide Web ConsortiumRecommendation 12 Month Year test version at http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/)1For more informationwww.pcc.edu/accessRequired by Federal Law"Requiring use of an emerging technologyin a classroom environment whenthe technology is inaccessible to an entirepopulation of individuals with disabilities.is discrimination prohibited by theAmericans with Disabilities Act of 1990(ADA) and Section 504 of the RehabilitationAct of 1973 (Section 504) unless thoseindividuals are provided accommodationsor modifications that permit them to receiveall the educational benefits provided bythe technology in an equally effectiveand equally integrated manner."Source: 6/29/2010Dear Colleague letter sent to every college and university /letters/colleague-20100629.html

WEB Accessibility idelineFor more informationwww.pcc.edu/access-guidelinesWhy Is This Important?Use properly formattedheadings to structure a page.Headings help to organize content, making it easier for everyone to read. Headings are alsoa primary way for people using screen reading software to navigate a page of text.Format lists as proper lists.Formatting is conveyed to assistive technologies and mobile devices so they can presentinformation as it’s meant to be presented. Properly formatted documents are moreunderstandable and accessible.Write meaningful link text.Links embedded in text should describe the link's destination. This helps all users navigatemore efficiently, especially screen reader users.Create tables with column and/orrow headers, and ensure aproper reading order.Use sufficient color contrast.Don't use color aloneto convey meaning.Why Column Headers in a Data Table are ImportantUsing table headers is important to conveying tabular data accurately.Why the Reading Order in a Table is ImportantScreen readers read tables from left to right, top to bottom, one cell at a time (& only once).If cells are split or merged, it could throw the reading order off which may make the tabledifficult to comprehend by users who are blind and using a screen reader to navigate.Without sufficient color contrast between font and background, people who are colorblind and low vision will not benefit from the information. And using color alone to conveymeaning will leave those who are color blind or blind unable to interpret the meaning.KeyboardEnsure that any action that uses Mobility and visual disabilities often make using a mouse impossible or ineffective. If contenta mouse can also be completed is not keyboard accessible, it will limit who can learn from the content.using only the keyboard.ImagesProvide alternative (Alt) textdescriptions for images.2AAlt text is read by a screen reader. It should adequately describe what is being displayed andwhy it’s important. This allows screen reader users to benefit from the information beingconveyed by the image, even if they cannot see it.

WEB Accessibility GuidelinesComponentGuidelineFor more informationwww.pcc.edu/access-guidelinesWhy Is This Important?NavigationDesign clear and consistentnavigation.Clear and consistent navigation in your course will allow students to focus on your contentrather than on how to find it.BlinkingEliminate or limit blinking /flashing content to 3 seconds.Blinking content is distracting, and it can cause seizures to occur in people witha photosensitive disorder.Forms Label form fields and buttonsclearly. Ensure a proper logicalreading order in a form.Why the reading order of a form is importantUsing the tab key, your cursor should follow through the form in the same order it isintended to be completed. This benefits users who cannot use a mouse.Why labeling buttons and form fields is importantA screen reader will identify the button or form field by reading the label. The label shouldadequately describe the button’s action, and the form field label should indicate whatinformation should be filled in to the form field.Keep a list of videos and audiorecordings that are not captioned /subtitled or transcribed. DL will askyou for that list when you have astudent with a captioningaccommodation.Video captions benefit many viewers. Captions are essential for those who are deaf and hardof hearing, but they also aid in comprehension for non-native English speakers, those who areunfamiliar with vocabulary, and viewers with some learning disabilities or in a noisyenvironment.SoftwareRequire only accessiblesoftware & applications.Inaccessible software and applications will shut students with disabilities out. Contact us tohave your interactive applications and software accessibility tested.Math &ScienceWrite math and scienceequations accessibly.For web pages, use an equation editor that outputs MathML. For MS Word and PPTdocuments, use the MathType plugin.VideoAudio2BAudio transcripts benefit many students. They are essential for those who are deaf or hardof hearing, but they also assist anyone who would like to read or search the transcript.

How to MakeAccessible D2L Web PagesComponentPageTemplateHeadingsAccessibility GuidelineFor more informationwww.pcc.edu/access-d2lHow to Make it AccessibleUse the most currentD2L page template.If you don't have the most current page template, contact the Faculty Help Desk or yourcampus Instructional Technology Specialist (ITS).Properly format headings.Use headings in the correctorder.Highlight the text and select the Heading # from the Format drop-down menu on the tool bar.There should be only one Heading 1 (h1) per page. But there can be multiple h2, h3, h4, h5,h6. DO NOT skip heading levels.ImagesAdd alternative (Alt) text toimages.1. Place the cursor where you want to insert an image, and click the Insert image icon fromthe toolbar. The Add a File window will open.2. Browse to the image location and select the image file. Click Add button.3. The Provide Alternative Text window will open. Describe the purpose of the image in theAlternative Text field, or check the box if the image is just decorative.4. Click OK.ListsFormat a list as a list usingOrdered or Unordered lists.1. Select the content you want to make into a list.2. From the toolbar, click the Unordered/Bulleted list icon if the order doesn'tmatter. Select Ordered List from the drop-down menu (next to the bulleted listicon) if the order does matter.LinksWrite meaningful link text thatindicates the link’s destination.1. Highlight meaningful text for the link (ex. Portland Community College)2. From the toolbar, click on the Insert Quicklink icon.3.

Click Update button.To add a caption, select the table and click on the drop down menu next to the Table icon.Select Table Properties, and check Include Caption. Then click Update when done.Check the reading order.ColorFor more informationwww.pcc.edu/access-d2lUse sufficient color contrast.A screen reader reads tables from left to right, and top to bottom, never repeating a cell.Merged, nested, and split cells may alter the reading order of a table.Make sure you construct your tables in a way that accommodates a good reading order.1. Select the text that you want to change to another color.2. Click drop-down menu next to the Apply Color icon in the toolbar.3. Select the color and click Save.Note: When picking a color for your text in D2L, make sure you choose a color thatregisters with a green checkmark for WCAG AA in the Select a Color palette.Don't use color alone to conveymeaning.Don't use color alone to make a distinction, a comparison or to set something apartfrom the rest of the web page. If you categorize something by color alone, those who arecolor blind or blind will not benefit from the color distinction.Math &ScienceWrite math and science equationsusing MathML.Use the D2L equation editor.For more information, go to the Math & Science page in this handbook.MultimediaEliminate or limit blinking/flashing content to 3 seconds.Make sure all mouse actions can also be completed with a keyboard alone (without a mouse.)Use an accessible media player like YouTube or the DL Kaltura player.3B
