Testing web-based solutions for improving reading tasks in students with dyslexia

Giulia Venturini, Cristina Gena · 2017

This work is aimed at assessing whether and how we can improve the level of web pages accessibility for dyslexic users, and to determine which new requisites could be added to the current ones proposed in the Italian Stanca Act in Italy, whose standards derive from the WCAG 2.0 guidelines for disabilities. In order to achieve this goal, we designed a test targeted to students diagnosed with dyslexia. Results showed that improvements may be reached taking into account a set of parameters not specifically considered by WCAG 2.0.
