I hardly dare ask *grin* but was use of MathML or accessible math
considerred at all in your survey (I know, I will read the details of
the rules you crated later, was just wondering if you could give me
the quick and dirty answer to this).
One would hardly expect accessible math on pages that do not have
their form fields in order, but I am very worried about the future of
STEM education as we move from the traditional campus environment with
readers or visual interpreters to online studies.
Thanks
