Accessing Digital Textbooks Accessible Instructional Materials Jeff Diedrich Ira Socol

Accessible Instructional Materials…

Legal Obligations… Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act American’s with Disability Act (ADA)

Why?

Does Text-to-Speech give an unfair advantage to students who use it?

Do students have Access to Text-to- Speech at School?
