Unfortunately, currently available platforms are not accessible to persons with vision impairments (PVIs) due to poor screen reader and keyboard support. In this paper, we present Web-Accessible LaTeX-based Authoring and Presentation (Web-ALAP), a web version of ALAP that makes creating mathematical documents accessible to PVIs. Web-ALAP provides assistive features like speech-based prompts, automatic narration of the error message along with the line number for debugging, and essential keyboard shortcuts. More importantly, the integrated “Math Mode” library offers a natural language description of the mathematical content within a document, which is not done by other screen readers. This feature enables PVIs to find and fix semantic errors in equations as well. We discuss the design choices in Web-ALAP and evaluate its features with 10 visually impaired participants. The results show that users perform better while working with Web-ALAP as opposed to another web-based LaTeX editor (Overleaf).","PeriodicalId":433618,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 22nd International ACM SIGACCESS Conference on Computers and Accessibility","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115397493","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To investigate these issues, we analyzed Twitter data to examine accessibility problems surfaced by the crisis. We identified three key domains at the intersection of accessibility and technology: (i) the allocation of product delivery services, (ii) the transition to remote education, and (iii) the dissemination of public health information. We found that essential retailers expanded their high-risk customer shopping hours and pick-up and delivery services, but individuals with disabilities still lacked necessary access to goods and services. Long-experienced access barriers to online education were exacerbated by the abrupt transition of in-person to remote instruction. Finally, public health messaging has been inconsistent and inaccessible, which is unacceptable during a rapidly-evolving crisis. We argue that organizations should create flexible, accessible technology and policies in calm times to be adaptable in times of crisis to serve individuals with diverse needs.","PeriodicalId":433618,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 22nd International ACM SIGACCESS Conference on Computers and Accessibility","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127750985","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, there remain obstacles to integrating accessibility into introductory CS coursework. In this paper, we discuss current challenges to building assistive technology and the findings of a formative study exploring the role of accessibility in an undergraduate CS curriculum. We respond to the observed obstacles by presenting V11, a cross-platform programming interface to empower novice CS students to build assistive technology. To evaluate the effectiveness of V11 as a CS and accessibility learning tool, we conducted design workshops with ten undergraduate CS students, who brainstormed solutions to a real accessibility problem and then used V11 to prototype their solution. Post-workshop evaluations showed a 28% average increase in student interest in building accessible technology, and V11 was rated easier to use than other accessibility programming tools. Student reflections indicate that V11 can be an accessibility learning tool, while also teaching fundamental Computer Science concepts.","PeriodicalId":433618,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 22nd International ACM SIGACCESS Conference on Computers and Accessibility","volume":"102 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114599258","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
