ii. Flexibility In Use

iii. Simple and Intuitive

iv. Perceptible Information

v. Tolerance For Error

vi. Low Physical Effort

vii. Size and Space For Approach And Use

FLEXIBILITY IN USE"THE DESIGN ACCOMMODATES A WIDE RANGE OF INDIVIDUAL PREFERENCES AND ABILITIES"Student should able to use a wide variety of devices to access the content and that use of the content not depend on the student’s ability.

For an example, hitting a button or control, that the content not require students to work at a predetermined speed, they should have their own space.

EXAMPLE OF FLEXIBILITY IN USEProvide the choices in methods of useAccommodate right-or-left handed access and usageFacilitate the user’s accuracy and precision In case of students with disabilities, like blind students, they should be able to use their Braille displays or specialized reading and writing software with web content.

- Web resource should be easy to reset or disabled the time-out in web application.

Perceptible Information"THE DESIGN COMMUNICATES NECESSARY INFORMATION EFFECTIVELY TO THE USER REGARDLESS OF AMBIENT

CONDITIONS OR THE USER'S SENSORY ABILITIES."

Providing multiple modes of presentation of essential information and making sure to differentiate essential information from secondary content.(video,Picture,etc)

Its make easy to give instruction or directions by differentiate elements in a easy way.

EXAMPLE OF PERCEPTIBLE INFORMATION

Using different modes like pictorial for redundant presentation of essential information.

Provide compatibility with a variety of techniques or devices used by people with sensory limitations.

SIMPLE AND INTUITIVE USE Use of the design is easy to understand, regardless of the user's

experience, knowledge, language skills, or current concentration level.

GUIDELINES Eliminate unnecessary complexity. Be consistent with user expectations and intuition. Accommodate a wide range of literacy and language skills. Arrange information consistent with its importance. Provide effective prompting and feedback during and after task completion.

EXAMPLES Full-length entry door sidelight: It does not disadvantage or stigmatize any

group of users, and can be an advantage to short children, tall adults, and older people.

EXAMPLES Science lab equipment with control buttons that are clear and intuitive is

an example of an application of this principle.
