Accessibility

Disability Services

Students who have documented, diagnosed disabilities, and who need special accommodations for tests, practical, etc., are advised to see the Disabilities Services staff in Student Services so that the instructor may be notified of what accommodations are appropriate in each case.  Requests for accommodations should be made to the designated campus disability services counselor at least 45 days before classes begin. Documentation must be provided to support the need for accommodations.

 

For assistance with disabilities, contact the campus Disabilities Counselor/Provider or the Coordinator of Learning Disabilities Services: call 822-1213, visit Student Services/Development, or visit the Disability Services webpage at http://www.tcc.edu/students/specialized/disabilityservices/index.htm

IMathAS (MyOpenMath) Accessibility

The IMathAS web platform complies with Section 508 Guidelines and WCAG1.0 Priority 1 Accessibility Guidelines (with the exception of 6.3: IMathAS requires Javascript to operate).

Additionally, IMathAS provides a text-based login option that automatically creates textual descriptions of most dynamically created graphs and charts, and when available utilizes MathML with MathPlayer for equation screenreading.

Individual questions are written by users and may not meet all Priority 1 Guidelines. Some question types, such as drawing answer entry and 3D graph display, are not accessible.

This statement is made based on the good faith intepretation of the Guidelines by the developers, and should not be construed as a guarantee or warranty.

IMathAS development is lead by David Lippman with partial support from the WA State E-Learning Council, the Transition Math Project, and Pierce College.
