[Athen] accessible web survey tools

[Kaela Parks]

We use Qualtrics which has some nice options for evaluating the level of
accessibility for all questions during the design process.

Thanks Sean. And you're right--it's a bit out of date. For one, the
caveats about high-contrast and tab navigability re: SurveyMonkey no
longer hold.

 

We've been using Survey Gizmo at the WAC for quite a while for both CIC
surveys and also for surveys to our DS office students. 

 

James, in SG, I recommend avoiding the "sortable" and star-ratng
questions. Those are still problematic with keyboard and screen reader.
Also, you might have a look at our "tips" section. Those still hold:

SurveyMonkey has done some nice things with table markup in their
grid-based questions that are specifically geared for accessibility.
It's definitely worth trying out.

 

We will update our information in the next few months. So I have added
in a note at the top of the page warning about the age of the
information....

 

Best,
ken

Hi James,

Have you looked at the study from Ohio State University that reviewed a
number of different survey tools?

http://wac.osu.edu/workshops/survey_of_surveys/

Some of the data is from 2008 and may be a bit dated, but I think the
overall information is still useful (and is one of the best evaluations
done on survey tools).

Take care,
Sean
