<Header> What is Cerebral Palsy? </Header>
Cerebral Palsy (CP) is a condition due to injury in parts of the brain that control one's ability to use the
muscles in the body. Cerebral is defined as having to do with the brain, and Palsy means weakness, or
difficulty using muscles. This injury to the brain is not due to one cause, as it can be due to problems
both before and after the birth. The range of Cerebral can range from mild to severe, with the more
severe cases often requiring a wheelchair or other form of equipment. Cerebral Palsy can also affect
one's ability to learn, affecting their sensory functions, and even their intellect.
<Header>Forms of Cerebral Palsy </Header>
There are form main types of Cerebral Palsy:
1. Spastic CP: There is too much muscle tone or tightness in the body, the movements become stiff.
2. Athetoid (Dyskinetic) CP: can affect the movements of the entire body, often causing slow,
uncontrolled body movements and low muscle tone that can make it difficult to sit properly or walk
3. Ataxic CP: Results in poor coordination, balance, and depth perception.
4. Mixed CP: A combination of the symptoms from the previous forms of CP.
Further Terms to describe the forms of CP include:
- Diplegia: Only the legs are affected
- Hemiplegia: This means half the body (such as the left arm and leg) is affected
- Quadriplegia: Both arms and legs are affected, this can sometimes include facial muscles and torso
<Header> Cerebral Palsy and Learning </Header>
Cerebral Palsy can greatly one's ability to learn, and in a variety of ways. There are those affected by
cerebral palsy that cannot use a keyboard or mouse, and sometimes they cannot both. Some are limited
with the use or one hand, others may have difficulty even using a computer at all. There are tools and
therapy designed specifically to aid those with cerebral palsy, including physical and speech-language
5. therapy, and such tools as communication boards and special switches for those who cannot use

7. Text for the main body of the visual impairments page:
<Header>What is Visual Impairment </Header>
Visual Impairment can refer to those with various visual disabilities which can include those who are
partailly sighted, low vision, legally blind, and totally blind.
-Partially sighted: Indicates some type of visual impairment has resulted in a special need for the
individual
- Low Vision : refers to a severe visual impairment, and at times is not limited to distance vision. This
applies to invdividuals who are unable to read at a normal viewing distance. They will use a combination
of vision and other senses in order to learn.
- Legally Blind: An individual who has less than 20/200 vision or a very limited field of vision
-Totally Blind: An individual who has no form of vision, and learns by braille or other non-visual media
<Header> More on Low Vision </Header>
Low vision can take many forms, and they each affect one's ability to read in a different way.
-Macular Degeneration: The macula is near the center of the retina, the area in the back of the eye. The
person's central are of sigh is affected, making it difficult to see objects that the person is looking at
directly. Text can appear broken and unclear.
- Glaucoma: Caused by an increase in presssure inside the eye, which will cause damage to the optic
nerve. This results in the opposite effect of macular degeneration: the loss of peripheral vision and a
blurry central area of vision. Text can appear both faded and blurry.
-Diabetic Retinopathy: One of the effects of long-term diabetes can be the leaking of retinal blood
vessels, which can cause dark patches in the field of vision where the leaks occur. Text can appear
blurred or distorted in these regions.
-Cataract: Those with cataract have areas of opacity in the lens of the eyes which will result in a blurred
or hazy effect, often in bright light. Text can appear to fade in the background of the page.
<Header>Aiding those with Visual Impairments</Header>
There are various tools that can aid those with visual impairments, and they often include screen
readers and screen magnifiers. This is why is encouraged to use true text as much as possible on the
web, as text in graphics will become blurry when enlarged.

9. Text for the main body of the accessible information page:
Microsoft Word and PowerPoint are two very popular tools that many students and teachers use to
convey information. The following is a few tips for making Word and PowerPoint documents more
accessible to those with disabilities.
<Header> Making Word More Accessible </Header>
<H2>Headings </H2>
Headings, though simple in appearance, is important when considering accessibility in Word Documents.
Headings allow screen readers to navigate through the page easily and helps make the page more
usable. It is not enough to simply change the font or using bold. The option for changing the heading
depends upon the version of word being used.
<H3> Word 2000-2003 </H3>
The drop-down styles list allows you to create true headings
<H3> Word 2007-2010</H3>
A portion of the default toolbar in this version of Word is devoted to styles. To change a block of text,
select the text and click on the appropriate style.
<H3> Word for Mac</H3>
10. Styles on Word for Mac are available in the Formatting palette. The Styles dropdown list is similar to the
list found in Word 2000-2003 for Windows.
<H2>Alternative Text </H2>
Images in Word can also be given appropriate alternative text, and not only can this alternative text be
read by screen readers, it should remain intact if the document is exported as an HTML or PDF.
<H3> Word 2000-2003 </H3>
To provide alternative text, Right-click on the image, then select Format Picture....
A dialog box will appear. Select the Web tab and then add the appropriate alternative text.
<H3> Word 2007 </H3>
To add alternative text, right-click on the picture and select Size....
11. A dialog box will appear. Select the Alt Text tab. You will notice that the image filename is entered into
the field by default. Replace the filename with appropriate alternative text.
Video
Video of how to add alt text to Word 2007
<H3> Word 2007-2010</H3>
Word 2010 moved the alt text field back to an intuitive place, but made things even more confusing by
creating two fields for alt text. To add alt text to an image, Select the Format Picture... option.
12. With the Format Picture menu open, select the option for Alt Text in the sidebar. Two fields will appear,
one labeled Title and one labeled Description. For best results, add appropriate alt text to the
Description field, not the Title field.
<Header> Making PowerPoint More Accessible </Header>
<H2>PowerPoint for Mac </H2>
It should be noted that PowerPoint for Mac has accessibility limitations, such as being unable to add
alternative text. Becuase of this, the information provided here can aid those who use Office for Mac.
<H2> Slide Layouts </H2>
Since 2000 Microsoft PowerPoint provides a number of accessible slide layouts. These layouts are
encouraged to be used because they ensure that the PowerPoint slides have correct headings, lists, and
reading order. The use of proper slide layouts is a simple way to make PowerPoint presentations more
accessible.
<H3>PowerPoint 2000-2003 </H3>
Select Format > Slide Layout... or use the Slide Layout sidebar.
13. <H3>PowerPoint 2007-2010 </H3>
Select Home > New Slide, or select the New Slide button, and a menu of slide types will appear.

<H2>Alternative Text </H2>
Images can be given alternative text in PowerPoint, and like Word, this alt text can be read by
screenreaders in a PowerPoint file, and remain intact when exported to HTML or PDF formats.
<H3>PowerPoint 2000-2003 </H3>
14. To provide alternative text, right click on the image, then select Format Picture....
A dialog box will appear. Select the Web tab and then add the appropriate alternative text.
<H3>PowerPoint 2007</H3>]
A dialog box will appear. Select the Alt Text tab. You will notice that the image filename is entered into
the field by default. Replace the filename with appropriate alternative text.

To add alternative text to an image, select Format Picture...
