| Summary: | Nowadays, visually impaired used screen reader to access the computer especially to surf the internet. However, the screen reader cannot read other element other than text. When a picture or any graph and tables include in the website, visually impaired just know it as a graphic. These projects focus on how to make the screen reader describe the entire non-text element in the website when used by the visually impaired. The objective of this project is to identify techniques to improve screen reader 'reading' non-text element which is by giving the details of the object into the coding. Another objective is to redesign the screen reader features. It is also to implement the features on UiTM website. This project is based on ADDIE model as the methodology. ADDIE is an acronym for Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation and Evaluation. The requirement is gathered during the interview conducted with the one of the human computer interaction expert. As a result of this project, the screen reader successfully describes the non-text element by reading the description code. Hopefully this project will give benefits to all users and to the web developer to develop a good website with some suggestion on how to improve the screen reader accessibility. |
