  • For the visual example, what works well regarding meeting the needs of those viewers with visual impairments?

  • What suggestions would you have for revising the design to be more effective for this audience?


Requirements:



  • Support your analysis and discussion with research from at least three scholarly sources. (You may use the course readings, in addition to other sources found through your research efforts, but citing course readings will not fulfill this requirement.)
