(Q1) Navigation : Can the software be accessed and used with a keyboard alone, without the
use of other input devices (i.e. a mouse)?
[ See Standard #1 ]
For instance, the software Cognitive Tutor Algebra I provides a comprehensive and integrated approach to algebra in
which students work with multiple representations (tables, graphs, algebraic
formulas, and written text) of a linear function. However, a mouse is
required to go from frame to frame, even though keyboard navigation can be
used within each frame. Therefore, when reviewing educational software, one
should consider the use of the mouse when determining accessibility.
Software that is accessible will provide a keyboard alternative to navigate
through the program.
