普及是我们的目标

美国残疾人法案 guarantees equal opportunity for individuals with disabilities. This equal opportunity includes accessibility of digital materials, 比如课程大纲, 学生手册, 以及学位表. 的 Nevada System of Higher Education (NSHE; Policy for Information and Communications Technology Accessibility) and the m88明陛内华达大学 (UNLV; Information and Communication Technology Accessibility Policy) also have policies that require educational materials to be accessible.

UNLV is committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, 无论技术或能力. We aim to comply with all applicable standards, including WCAG (网络 Content Accessibility Guidelines) 可访问性标准.

什么是可访问性?

"Accessible" means that individuals with disabilities are able to independently acquire the 相同 信息,参与其中 相同 interactions, and enjoy the 相同 services within the 相同 time frame as individuals without disabilities, with 基本上相同的易用性.

哪些项目必须是可访问的?

的 items that must be covered are listed in the definition of accessible used by NSHE and UNLV:

ICT (information and communications technology) includes, 但不限于, Internet和Intranet网站, 以数字形式提供的内容, electronic books and electronic book reading systems, 搜索引擎和数据库, 学习管理系统, 课堂教学技术, 教学材料, student response systems ("clickers"), and equipment such as classroom podiums, 复印机, 还有传真机. 信息和通信技术还包括, 但不限于, telecommunications products (such as telephones), 信息亭, 自动柜员机, transaction machines (such as payment terminals), 电脑, 辅助设备, 软件, 服务(包括支援服务), equipment maintained and services operated by third-party vendors, 以及相关资源.

For UNLV academic and administrative faculty and classified staff, these policies imply that all productivity documents such as spreadsheets, ppt, and Word Documents must be created in and exported in an accessible format before being distributed via web, 电子邮件, 或者参加网络Campus-Canvas课程. For those who are purchasing technology (hardware, 网上服务及软件), these policies and related standards apply to the acquisition or renewal of ICT, regardless of the anticipated end user group (faculty, staff or students) or the number of users.

How is accessibility achieved and measured?

This starts with building the UNLV website to be accessible to the widest possible audience, including individuals with disabilities. 我们使用 Accessible Rich Internet Applications (ARIA) specification, and strive to meet or exceed the 网络 Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.1 A & AA) established by the World Wide 网络 Consortium (W3C).

的 University also seeks to achieve adherence to, and conformance with the following standards (when possible):

UNLV uses a number of automated and manual checks for websites, pages and documents to ensure optimal accessibility.

Who is responsible for ensuring accessibility conformance & 合规?

Technology accessibility is an institution- and system-wide responsibility. Technology access for individuals with disabilities must provide comparable functionality, 可购性, accuracy of content and timeliness of service delivery. Products and services must be usable by the greatest number of people including individuals with disabilities.

Individual faculty and staff who publish 网络 pages, distribute electronic documents (e.g.,通过电子邮件、网站、网络Campus等方式.) and/or sign a contract with a vendor of electronic technology for the purpose of conducting University-related business and services, and who are notified of non-合规 are required to remediate the inaccessible material. 的 无障碍资源办公室 is available to provide support, 指导, and consultation assistance to address accessibility.

是否提供无障碍培训??

UNLV currently offers scheduled as well as ad-hoc accessibility training for academic and administrative faculty and anyone responsible for developing, 加载, 维护, or auditing digital content and functionality. Training is also offered to those who must purchase technology.
