Hello all. Can anyone shed light on whether or not the Illuminate online testing site is accessible with screen readers? My girls tests are being brailed for them, but I'm not sure if that's because the site isn't accessible, or if it is just another one of those easier for the vision team things, instead of teaching the kids how to use it. My girls keep telling me it's not accessible, but I'm not sure how true that is. I also don't know if accessibility is determined by how accessible one test might be over another, based on formatting, or if all tests are in the same format. Obviously math tests would be a completely different story. In my search, I can find information on text to speech features of Illuminate, but those features don't relate to screen reader accessibility.
