Dear all, Does anyone have any references, prefereably peer-reviewed, etc, on why dyslexic users need particular style fonts, layout, line-spacing, short lines, pale, plain coloured backgrounds, etc? I am working on a site for a University project on students with disabilities and what we should/must provide for them. I have learned to use dyslexic-friendly layout and follow the WAI guidelines on my Faculty pages because it seems to be the consensus online but am now being hounded by academic colleagues for references. I have searched the Net pretty thoroughly, and have made a start on print material but why reinvent the wheel? Any references on VI users and their user interfaces to the Net would be helpful too? Many thanks for any suggestions, email me offlist at [log in to unmask] Evelyn ;) Evelyn Toseland Webmaster Faculty of Applied Sciences University of the West of England Email: [log in to unmask] ________________End of message______________________ Archives and tools for the Disability-Research Discussion List are now located at: www.jiscmail.ac.uk/lists/disability-research.html You can JOIN or LEAVE the list from this web page.
