Below are the standards for all 顶级国产视频 website managers and digital content creators.
Creating Accessible Materials
Everyone perceives and interacts differently with digital content. Those who see, hear, move, or think differently deserve the opportunity to engage with digital content. All digital content on the 顶级国产视频 website should be accessible to all users, including students, faculty, staff, and those outside of 顶级国产视频. All digital content should be “friendly” to screen readers and should provide captions.
Below are helpful guidelines and resources to help you create accessible digital content.
Standards to Follow
- Images should have alternative text (also known as “alt text”).
- Graphics or pie chart images must have alternative, text-only-formatted files available to download.
- Tables must include table headers and summary descriptions of the content included in the tables.
- Links must have advisory or tooltip text (a brief, informative message that appears when a user interacts with the text) and, in addition to a color associated with the link, should be underlined or italicized.
- Heading styles must follow logical order. Example: Header 1 (H1) should be followed by Header 2 (H2); H2 by H3; an so forth.
- Digital content must be navigational through the use of a keyboard and readable through screen readers.
- Digital content must use the proper color contrast between text and backgrounds for those with low vision.
- Images should not be used for text.
- Videos must have captions and transcripts available.
