Students Encounter Digital Barriers when Learning Online

Some students are disadvantaged in an online environment because the information on websites is not as easy to digest as it would be in a normal classroom or lecture environment.

It is not as straightforward as simply converting materials, lectures and workshop plans into a digital structure. Different learning styles and different abilities must be accounted for. To support the 330,000 higher education students who identify as having a disability, online education must take into account different learning styles.

Why you Should Provide Online Support for Students

Equal Opportunities

Not everyone learns the same way. Digital materials must account for varying learning styles and abilities, and be inclusive of everyone.

Additional Income

By welcoming and supporting international students with linguistic support, colleges and universities stand to gain more in tuition fees and government funding.

Diversity and Culture

Being able to support overseer learners means you can attract the best students, develop a diverse and inclusive campus, and enrich the learning environment for everyone.

Let us show you how easy it can be.

Millions of educational webpages made accessible through the use of assistive technology

Every stage of education should be inclusive. Today’s students are the workforce of tomorrow, but not everyone learns in the same way. Students of all ages need assistive technology to account for varying abilities, learning styles, and online access barriers.

The number of pages viewed using Recite Me technology on education websites in 2021 was over 230% higher than the industry average.
