Kamei-Hannan, Cheryl
Journal of Visual Impairment & Blindness, v102 n5 p261-271 May 2008
This study examined the accessibility barriers of a computerized adapted test called the Measure of Academic Performance. The results showed that as magnification increased, time on the test increased and students required visual efficiency skills. Students who used refreshable braille displays were faced with several obstacles. (Contains 4 tables.)
