Find out how Lexia® supports Universal Design of Learning. For example, all text, image tags, and captioning are sent to refreshable Braille displays. Lexia’s web-based teacher and administrator products are partially compliant with Section 508 guidelines. In particular, the mobile app of the myLexia® educator site supports iOS accessibility options. But note Lexia’s student-facing product components are designed to be used by learners without profound hearing or visual impairment.
While note-taking tools and highlighter functionality are not explicitly available for students to use within the online program, students do have easy access to a set of reference materials directly related to the skill on which they are working by clicking on the Hints button in the upper-right corner of the screen. Here, students will have access to reference materials that include the anchor skills chart from the lesson, a familiar instructional image to jog their memory, and the instructional video they watched during the concept introduction phase of the online lesson.
If students require more than these embedded supports, a fully scripted, targeted Lexia Lesson is automatically prescribed and the teacher is notified. This minimizes frustration, and students can get back on track.
Lexia® PowerUp Literacy® tasks requiring color recognition were built using a color-blindness filter to ensure students with color blindness can complete tasks. The program can be used in conjunction with accessibility features of internet browsers that provide visual magnification and/or adjustments to screen color/contrast or resolution.
Lexia is continually working to update and improve its programs’ accessibility.
