As you know, publishers' supplemental online coursework has a history of inaccessibility for JAWS users. Although far from being completely accessible, Pearson has been able to digitally earmark their JAWS-readable My_Labs content so instructors can build it into their courses. However, I'm not as familiar with McGraw-Hill's product and we're facing similar issues when our JAWS users try to perceive and complete their Connect coursework.

Has anyone experience with JAWS users completing McGraw-Hill's Connect coursework? If so, what was done to make the material accessible? Alt formats? Additionally, if anyone has contact information for the appropriate department\personnel at McGraw-Hill regarding Connect accessibility, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Gratefully,
