Design Accessible Survey

Key Survey application allows creating surveys for people with disabilities that meet most Section 508 requirements.
They can be accessed and filled out using screen reader and keyboard (including accessible keyboard).

In order to build accessible Section 508-compliant survey within Key Survey one should follow these requirements:

  1. It is not recommended to use questions of 'Rate Different Items' and '3D Matrix' types because they can be displayed and filled in differently using different browsers and screen readers.
  2. Questions that contain radio-buttons ('Pick One or Other', 'Compare One Against Another', etc.) should be designed using <default/> tag to mark the default answer choice.
  3. It is not recommended to use 'Other' option ('Pick One or Other' and 'Check All That Apply' types of question).
  4. It is not recommended to use "Access Time Saver" plugin in this type of surveys.
Note

In "Preview" mode default answer choice will not be marked. This feature works for real launch only.
