[Athen] Google Forms Accessibility

[Frederick, Kathryn A.]

I too have successfully used Google Forms for work and volunteer projects. I personally prefer using the platform on my Mac with Safari and VoiceOver, but know things can be accomplished on the Windows side with a screen reader too. If you’d like specific help, feel free to contact me off-list, (Frederick.273 at osu.edu<mailto:Frederick.273 at osu.edu>). I hope this helps and best of luck.

Yeah, it's crazy; I can now finally start using Chrome as my main browser since a few major issues seem to have gotten fixed.  I expect things to break at any time, though.  (I am a screen reader user).  In regards to Forms, I am able to create forms, add controls, manage the data, etc.  It definitely takes some exploration and familiarization with where all of the controls are, but I've used it for work-related tasks many times over the past few years.
