Anyone have an online system to test for accessibility, e.g. throw up
pages with accessibility errors, and allow students to identify the
errors and score their answers?

Take a look at http://worldspace.deque.com/ - this is a Firebug plugin
for analyzing web pages.

Also take a look at http://www.deque.com/ there is a single page
analysis feature there that you can use to analyze pages.

The University of Washington has a good site that demonstrates a page
with numerous problems, documents all of the issues, then shows you a
corrected version.

http://www.washington.edu/accesscomputing/AU/

If your end goal is to test students' knowledge this site won't
totally help you because it gives you all of the answers, but it might
give you a good starting point for creating something of your own. If
all you are wanting is a self-test then it would probably work well in
your situation. I've used this site to create customized training for
our campus on accessible Web design.
