Usability and Accessibility

This section is about how effectively your eportfolio can be read and navigated by your readers.
Ease of Navigation *
This element speaks to the usability of your eportfolio. Will your reader be able to navigate your work without being
lost or distracted?
Exemplary: The navigation links are intuitive. The various parts of the portfolio are labeled, clearly organized and
allow the reader to easily locate an artifact and move to related pages or a different section. All pages connect to a
navigation menu, and all external links connect to the appropriate website or file.
Proficient: The navigation links generally function well, but it is not always clear how to locate an artifact or move to
related pages or different section. Most of the pages connect to the navigation menu. Most of the external links
connect to the appropriate website or file.
Developing: The navigation links are somewhat confusing, and it is often unclear how to locate an artifact or move
to related pages or a different section.Some of the pages connect to the navigation menu, but in other places the links
do not connect to preceding pages or to the navigation menu. Some of the external links do not connect to the
appropriate website or file.
Unsatisfactory: The navigation links are confusing, and it is difficult to locate artifacts and move to related pages or
a different section. There are significant problems with pages connecting to preceding pages or the navigation menu.
Many of the external links do not connect to the appropriate website or file.
Text Elements and Layout *
This element combines both accessibility and usability. Ease of reading depends on many text elements as described
below.
Exemplary: The eportfolio is easy to read. Fonts and type size vary appropriately for headings, sub-headings and
text. Use of headings, sub-headings and paragraphs promotes easy scanning. Use of font styles (italic, bold, underline)
is consistent and improves readability. Horizontal and vertical white space alignment are used appropriately to organize
content..
Proficient: The eportfolio is generally easy to read. Fonts and type size vary appropriately for headings, subheadings and text. In general, use of headings, sub-headings and paragraphs promotes easy scanning.Use of font
styles (italic, bold, underline) is generally consistent. Horizontal and vertical white space alignment are generally used
appropriately to organize content.
Developing: The eportfolio is often difficult to read due to inappropriate use of fonts and type size for headings, subheadings, text or long paragraphs. Inconsistent use of font styles (italic, bold, underline) distracts the reader. Some

formatting tools are under or over-utilized and decrease the readers' accessibility to the content. Horizontal and vertical
white space alignment are sometimes used inappropriately to organize content.
Unsatisfactory: The eportfolio is difficult to read due to inappropriate use of fonts, type size for headings, subheadings and text and font styles (italic, bold, underline). Lack of paragraphing impedes scanning. Many formatting
tools are under or over-utilized and decrease the reader accessibility to the content. Horizontal and vertical white
space alignment are used inappropriately, and the content appears disorganized and cluttered.
Color *
Colors and contrast are another aspect of usability and accessibility. (Keep in mind that some of your readers will be
color blind. )
Exemplary: Color of background, fonts, and links enhance the readability and aesthetic quality, and are used
consistently throughout the eportfolio.
Proficient: Color of background, fonts, and links generally enhance the readability of the text, and are generally
used consistently throughout the eportfolio.
Developing: Color of background, fonts, and links decrease the readability of the text, are distracting and used
inconsistently in some places throughout the eportfolio.
Unsatisfactory: Color of background, fonts, and links decrease the readability of the text, are distracting and used
inconsistently throughout the eportfolio.
Writing Conventions *
Be sure to proofread, spell check, proofread again. Consider using a text to speech system to listen for writing
convention problems. Seek peer feedback. Ask someone to read through your work.
Exemplary: There are no errors in grammar, capitalization, punctuation, and spelling.
Proficient: There are a few errors in grammar, capitalization, punctuation, and spelling. These require minor editing
and revision.
Developing: There are 4 or more errors in grammar, capitalization, punctuation, and spelling requiring editing and
revision.
Unsatisfactory: There are more than 6 errors in grammar, capitalization, punctuation, and spelling requiring major
editing and revision.

Audio Visual Elements

The only required AV artifact for EDUC 760 is your Closed Caption project.
However, you may choose to add images, as well as audio and video files to your e-portfolio. The following criteria will
help you judge your AV work.
Use of Multimedia
Consider the meaning that multimedia conveys to your audience.
Exemplary: All of the photographs, concept maps, spreadsheets, graphics, audio and/or video files enhance
understanding of concepts, ideas and relationships, create interest, and are appropriate for the chosen purpose.
Accessibility requirements using alternate text for graphics are included in web-based portfolios.
Proficient: Most of the graphic elements and multimedia contribute to understanding concepts, ideas and
relationships, enhance the written material and create interest.
Developing: Some of the graphic elements and multimedia do not contribute to understanding concepts, ideas and
relationships. Some of the graphics include alternate text in web-based portfolios.
Unsatisfactory: None of the graphic elements or multimedia contribute to understanding concepts, ideas and
relationships. The inappropriate use of multimedia detracts from the content. None of the graphics include alternate text
in web-based portfolios.
AV Quality

and closed captions.

Proficient: Most of the audio / video files are edited with proper voice projection, appropriate language, and clear
