By creating content that makes use of simple language and terminology, you\u2019re making it accessible to a wider variety of people. The WCAG Guidelines make reference to writing for a reading age of around lower secondary school level. But, it\u2019s not just cognitive accessibility that benefits from a low reading age, factors such as your website&#8217;s SEO can also be influenced. As we know search engines favour websites that have easily understandable content. Learn more about <a href=\"https:\/\/reciteme.com\/au\/news\/web-accessibility-and-seo\/\">web accessibility and SEO<\/a> here.<\/p><p>The process of creating readable content may seem straightforward, but there&#8217;s some additional things you can do to stand out. For example, in industries that require a lot of technical terms or jargon, you can also provide users a glossary of terms. Additionally, breaking content up with properly labelled headings, media and ordered lists can be very beneficial.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-9b23c32 disable-default elementor-section-content-middle elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"9b23c32\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-66 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-a223ba0\" data-id=\"a223ba0\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-13a2645 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"13a2645\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Accessible Navigation<\/h3><p>Navigation is crucial to improve web accessibility for people with cognitive disabilities and accessibility on websites as it directly impacts how users and people with cognitive disabilities can access and comprehend the content effectively.

Start by creating properly labelled heading and title tags that are formulated in a hierarchical structure. Headings should be descriptive, but concise, allowing users to quickly identify different sections of the content and navigate to areas of interest.<\/p><p>Additionally, full <a href=\"https:\/\/reciteme.com\/au\/news\/keyboard-accessibility\/\">keyboard navigation<\/a> should be working and operational. You can test this web accessibility feature by using the tab key on your website. This should allow you to move to every important element on the web page. Moreover, a screen reader should be able to read each of these elements, including elements that are hyperlinked. The anchor text found in these hyperlinks should be descriptive, allowing the user to clearly understand where the content will take them if they decide to click.<\/p><h3>Predictable Web Pages<\/h3><p>For users with cognitive disabilities, creating web pages that are predictable in their nature is an important accessibility consideration. In the WCAG Guidelines it states web pages should \u201cappear and operate in predictable ways\u201d this is critical when considering good user experience design ideas.<\/p><p>Predictability creates a feeling of consistency and prevents any confusion users with cognitive impairments may feel. This is helpful to minimise any errors as users with cognitive impairments are already aware of what to expect when interacting with different elements of the website. Additionally, it fosters a sense of confidence in users with cognitive impairment, as they can more accurately predict the outcome of their actions, leading to them feeling more comfortable exploring the website.<\/p><p>To create a predictable web design, ensure that all of your website&#8217;s pages follow the same consistent layout and navigation structure. Keep your navigation menus in a standardised location and use easily recognisable icons. Additionally, use consistent button labels that do not change much from page to page, ensure all images have their relevant <a href=\"https:\/\/reciteme.com\/au\/news\/how-to-write-image-alt-text-for-accessibility\/\">image alt text<\/a> and use descriptive anchor text for links.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-589bb9b disable-default elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"589bb9b\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-98849e8\" data-id=\"98849e8\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-93487aa elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"93487aa\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"285\" src=\"https:\/\/reciteme.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/11\/Reading-300x285-1.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-28235\" alt=\"reading\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-66 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-d22a19b\" data-id=\"d22a19b\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fa8aa17 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"fa8aa17\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Give users with Cognitive Disabilities enough Time<\/h3><p>When using websites it is important that the user has enough time to read and use the digital content themselves, this is another one of the success criteria in the WCAG Guidelines. Users with specific cognitive or physical disabilities may require more time to read, understand and navigate web content. Therefore, they may struggle to complete tasks in instances whereby a time limit has been set to perform an action such as filling out a form or making a purchase.<\/p><p>In order to address this, website owners should allow users to either turn off or adjust the time limit set. Adjustments should be allowed up to a factor of 10 of the original time limit, to ensure all users have enough time to complete the process. Additional optimisation can be made that allow users to auto-save data in forms, so that if they do experience an expired session, their data is not permanently lost.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-10846ab disable-default elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"10846ab\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-e91a6bb\" data-id=\"e91a6bb\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-eca2122 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"eca2122\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Allowing Input Assistance<\/h3><p>Another statement made in the WCAG guidelines related to input assistance and claims that websites should \u201chelp users avoid and correct mistakes\u201d. People with cognitive disabilities are generally more prone to making mistakes when navigating websites. Therefore, implementing input assistance can help minimise these errors, while also ensuring if any errors are made, they can be easily corrected.<\/p><p>Properly optimised input assistance should include automated error detection that can describe the error in text and as specific as possible. You should also include icons for those who find reading text difficult. Both the text and icon versions should link to the related input and if multiple errors are present, each error explanation should point to the input.<\/p><p>Furthermore, it is important to provide help to the user where necessary. For example, forms should include instructions that help the user implement the required inputs and understand the purpose of the form and each field. Additionally, spell checking and suggestions for text-based form input should be included. In instances where a specific format is required, an example should be provided.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-695b714 disable-default elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"695b714\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-66 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-3690ef0\" data-id=\"3690ef0\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-642fbc7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"642fbc7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-medium\">Digital Accessibility and Inclusion Toolkit<\/span>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-89b1a1b elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"89b1a1b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Our 40-page Digital Accessibility &amp; Inclusion Toolkit helps businesses break down online barriers and make a real impact.
