**This page is different than the others**
The Digital Access page requires action research. You will choose which digital access topic (access to devices or assistive technology) to focus on. Then you will send out a survey to your targeted audience. This page should provide SOLUTIONS based on the results of your survey (see example at bottom of page). Choose your survey questions purposely in order to give you insight into what type of support your target audience needs about that topic. This page will serve as that support.
Choose a pathway: Your "Digital Access" Page will...
(1) provide examples and information about types of assistive technologies that are available and
the operation/function of those technologies, OR
(2) provide resources/places/ services for individuals to access computing services and technologies.

Web Accessibility
"One in four adults in the United States has a disability. Although not all disabilities impact internet use, businesses would be unwise to purposely exclude 25, 15, or even five percent of their potential customers. In education and government, in many cases it is illegal discrimination" (Web Accessibility In Mind, 2020a).

The Wave Web Accessibility Evaluation Tool can be used to evaluate the accessibility of your Digital Citizenship Website. By entering your web link/ URL into the website, it will provide feedback on missing alternative text, structure, and contrast issues among others. Note that while the evaluation tool provides automatic feedback, designers should also look for accessibility issues manually as well.
