  • A Second Look at What High School Students Who Are Blind Should Know About Technology
    A Second Look at What High School Students Who are Blind Should Know About Technology Stacy M. Kelly, Gaylen Kapperman Visual Disabilities Program, Northern Illinois University [email protected], [email protected] Abstract This article presents an overview of mainstream and assistive technology skills and tools to be mastered by high school students who are blind in preparation for postsecondary education. It is an update to an article written on this exact topic fifteen years ago. The recommendations focus entirely on what is necessary in today’s high-tech society for high school learners who read and write braille competently (e.g., read braille tactually at a minimum rate of 30 words per minute). The number of recommendations from the original article in 2004 has more than doubled. There were only 14 recommendations in 2004. In 2018 there are more than 30 recommendations for students who are blind to relate to their use of assistive technology. The Certified Assistive Technology Instructional Specialist for People with Visual Impairments (CATIS) provides a Scope of Practice and Body of Knowledge that is sufficient for supporting the substantial growth in the assistive technology-related knowledge, skills, and tools recommended in this article. Keywords Assistive technology, blind, certification, education, visually impaired Journal on Technology and Persons with Disabilities Santiago, J. (Eds): CSUN Assistive Technology Conference © 2018 California State University, Northridge A Second Look at What High School Students Who are Blind Should Know About Technology 386 Introduction This article represents a “second look” at the issue of competence in the use of appropriate technology to be mastered by students who are blind and who may be enrolling in some type of postsecondary educational program.

  • Implementing the ATLAS Self-Driving Vehicle Voice User Interface
    Implementing the ATLAS Self-Driving Vehicle Voice User Interface Julian Brinkley Clemson University, School of Computing, Human-Centered Computing Division Shaundra B. Daily Duke University, Department of Computer Science Juan E. Gilbert University of Florida, Computer and Information Science and Engineering [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Abstract This article describes the implementation of the ATLAS self-driving vehicle voice user interface prototype. ATLAS has been designed to support the experiential needs of visually impaired self-driving vehicle users. Keywords Self-Driving Vehicles; Voice User Interface; Accessibility; Visual Impairment; Transportation Journal on Technology and Persons with Disabilities Santiago, J. (Eds): CSUN Assistive Technology Conference © 2019 California State University, Northridge Implementing the ATLAS Self-Driving Vehicle Voice User Interface 134 Introduction The Accessible Technology Leveraged for Autonomous vehicles System, or ATLAS is a prototype human-machine interface intended to support the spatial orientation and navigation needs of self-driving vehicle users with visual disabilities. Within this report we describe the development of the system’s voice user interface and share lessons learned during the development process. We argue that a review of our experiences in implementing the ATLAS VUI may prove beneficial for researchers who may face similar challenges in rapidly prototyping voice user interfaces. Prototype Implementation System Overview The development of ATLAS was motivated by a desire to address the self-driving vehicle accessibility challenges suggested by the visually impaired survey respondents of our prior survey (Brinkley, Daily, et al.), focus groups (Brinkley, Posadas, et al.) and participatory design sessions. This report describes the implementation of the system’s voice user interface specifically.

    THANK YOU TO Sakarya University for organizing this conference and to the Technische Universitat Wien for hosting us! TOPICS • Convention of the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, United Nations, Articles 20 and 24; • Web accessibility; • United States laws governing accommodations for students with disabilities • Sections 504 and 508 • Americans with Disabilities Act; • Wheelchair Stations; • Assistive Listening Systems; • Demonstrations of students using Assistive Technology; • Favorite Tools of Our Students; • Resources. • Our results. WHAT IS ACCESSIBLE TECHNOLOGY? • Assistive technologies refer to computers or rehabilitative devices, promote greater independence for students with disabilities by changing how these individuals can interact with technology to participate in college courses; • For example, speech recognition software allows users with hand mobility issues to interact with computers using voice commands rather than through manipulating a mouse and keyboard; • Additional assistive technologies include alternative input devices, screen magnifiers, and screen reading software. ADDITIONAL BENEFITS FOR ACCESSIBILITY? • Increasing accessibility can improve the usability of content for all students; • Captions help all students focus on a presentation and understand the professor more clearly; • Accessible documents allow for more flexible student use; • Students, staff, and faculty with temporary injuries benefit from elevators, ramps, and etc.; • Accessible web sites are more usable for all.

  • Other Screen Readers to Consider
    Other Screen Readers to consider JAWS and Window-Eyes Why Learn about JAWS and Window-Eyes Though we won’t be using JAWS (Job Access for Windows) or Window-Eyes as our primary screen readers for accessibility testing purposes in the context of this course, it is still important to know about these screen readers, which together are used by a majority of screen reader users to operate their computers and navigate the Web. It is always a good idea to do a final test of Web content with JAWS or Window-Eyes before it goes into production. You can test across all the major browsers using JAWS. Key Features of JAWS JAWS can be downloaded and installed on Windows in 40 minute mode, after which the computer must be rebooted before it will run for another 40 minutes, and so on. Though this is often enough time for developers to do some quick screen reader testing, be aware that it is best practice in web accessibility auditing for developers to purchase a JAWS license before using it for screen reader testing. Window-Eyes has a similar arrangement, running for 30 minutes before a reboot is required. When using JAWS for screen reader testing, there are a few standard tests you should perform. No need to learn how to use all of JAWS, which can be difficult for inexperienced users who only use it periodically. The following is a list of the primary keyboard commands you should learn, based on JAWS 15+. These command correspond to some of the key WCAG guidelines, identified in Module 1 including listing and navigating, headings, links, landmarks, and so on.
