[Athen] VoiceThread

[Samantha Johns]

Hello,

My experience with Voice Thread is that it is very difficult to navigate
with a screenreader and is pretty much not accessible for those using a
screenreader because the navigation is not spoken at all by screenreader
software.



Warm Regards,

“The one argument for accessibility that doesn’t get made nearly often
enough is how extraordinarily better it makes some people’s lives. How many
opportunities do we have to dramatically improve people’s lives just by
doing our job a little better?”  ― Steve Krug
