I must admit – this one has me confused. Several institutions investigating the use of ebook readers were informed the readers did not meet accessibility requirements. It was reported that while the Kindle dx offers text to speech conversion full control of the device is difficult for those with vision problems. What is the standard here? If the Kindle was being investigated as an alternative to a traditional book, it we seem obvious that the Kindle would have an advantage because of text-to-speech. Some accommodation would be required in both cases, but this would not seem to negate use of the Kindle by most students.
