Best Practice 1.12 – Provide alternatives for audio-only information (Advanced level)
Make prerecorded audio accessible by providing alternatives that present essentially the same information to people who cannot access the original piece. For example, persons with hearing impairment cannot hear audio and need a way to get the same information.
Before Rectification The above example provides an audio function alone which is not accessible to persons with hearing impairment. |
After Rectification In addition to the audio function, a transcript of this audio is also provided to allow persons with hearing impairment to read the audio contents. |
