Universal Design

I found a teaching website on universal access that gives an example of the same site done twice; once with accessibility features and once as an inaccessible site. Here is the address:

http://www.cew.wisc.edu/accessibility/examples/aquaticArtsBad/index.htm

This site was helpful because it shows things like font sizes, alt tags, css, etc that should be present to help users with inaccessibilty issues.

For my final project what I need to do to make it more accessible is to create a font option and text background option that will allow for sizes and colors that will make for easier reading for the visually impaired. I also need alt tags on my pictures and the text only option for screen readers. When dealing with accessibility issues in the classroom I would be aware of what those were and work with the student individually to help meet his/her needs. When I am confronted with a learning disability in the classroom I learn about that student's particular needs and tailor the assignments accordingly. If I were dealing with an accessibility issue and could not solve that problem via the website then I'd create some sort of learning alternative (game, poster, worksheet, ) that would allow the student to show me what they have learned.

I did not find a court case.
