<p class="MsoNormal">Zach – thank you for bringing this up! Our campus has about 600 laptops in student circulation right now and my estimate is that about 95% of them are Chromebooks (due to the low cost and availability during the pandemic).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Many of them are passing their useful life span and we are trying to figure out how to keep this program going for our students. Now that Chromebooks are considerably more expensive if they are found to be lacking in accessibility, this
would be great to know so we can pivot to replacing with PCs instead. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><br>
An added testing note is that we are a Microsoft school so using MS Office apps on a Chromebook can be quite frustrating. I think somewhat easier now that the browser based MS apps are easier to use but still a hurdle for all users.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I don’t have expertise or resources to share but will be cheering you on from Shoreline!<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="xmsonormal">Good morning CATO,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal">Do you have time to help me (and all of us,) out? Want to get your hands dirty with some assistive technology?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal">I am being asked to evaluate Chromebooks for use in Clark College's IT infrastructure. I am feeling a lot of pressure, especially given Chromebooks' history of being inaccessible and given the scope of what an actually thorough and professional
evaluation like this involves. Because Chromebook accessibility or lack thereof impacts all of us, I figured I would ask CATO for help. At my CIO"s recommendation, I recently reached out to several institutions who use Chromebooks and it seems those institutions
were unaware of or didn't test for accessibility before adopting Chromebooks. Here is a rough outline of how I plan to go about this testing:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<ul style="margin-top:0in" type="disc">
<li class="xmsolistparagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">Research existing Chromebook accessibility documentation and find recent user stories from AT users who regularly use the devices<o:p></o:p></li><li class="xmsolistparagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">Verify that all built-in assistive technologies are compatible with Google suite, and adequate and functional for a user in 2023<o:p></o:p></li><li class="xmsolistparagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">Test out screen magnification and make sure it is adequate
<o:p></o:p></li><li class="xmsolistparagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">Test switch access and insure compatibility with common hardware switches<o:p></o:p></li><li class="xmsolistparagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">Test voice-control (Dragon-like functionality) and insure that user experience is consistent. Test with device mic and some common headset mics.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="xmsolistparagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">Verify that using Chromevox is comparable to using a screen-reader like Jaws or NVDA and verify that the Google Suite is functionally accessible with Chromevox<o:p></o:p></li><li class="xmsolistparagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">Verify claims that braille support (including UEB and Nemeth support) has been improved and works consistently across the Google suite of apps. Verify that braille support works
with common braille display hardware.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="xmsolistparagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">Finalize an assistive technology training plan for AT users who have Chromebooks and wish to be trained to access Clark resources with them.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="xmsolistparagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">Align all of the above with Revised Sec. 508 functional accessibility requirements or with WCAG wherever applicable<o:p></o:p></li></ul>
<p class="xmsonormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal">Here are a couple of asterisks:<o:p></o:p></p>
<ul style="margin-top:0in" type="disc">
<li class="xmsolistparagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l1 level1 lfo2">Clark is not considering the arm architectured Chromebooks, only the Intel I5s and i7s<o:p></o:p></li><li class="xmsolistparagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l1 level1 lfo2">At this time Clark is not interested in touchscreen functionality<o:p></o:p></li></ul>
<p class="xmsonormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal">I haven't brought this up with CATO leadership or asked to have it on the agenda or anything, just feeling stressed and asking for some support. I could use any help at all with this! I'd be glad to chat about it at the June CATO meeting
though.<o:p></o:p></p>
