How to Use the Accessibility Toolkit
The MAR*TEC Accessibility Checklist sits within the MAR*TEC Preview Center. The Preview Center is a physical collection of instructional software and an online database of educators' reviews.
- Select "Educational Software Catalogue" to see a search screen. Users can search for a specific piece of software or "view all products" within the database.See Example Currently, the database contains two distinct tools for evaluating instructional software. The first survey assesses the educational usability of each piece of software. The second is the accessibility checklist.
- Select "View all Products" to receive a descriptive list of software. Five titles are delivered in each window, and users may page forward by selecting "next" at the bottom of the screen.
