Harding is testing an accessibility/language tool on our external website. UserWay will appear as a blue circle icon in the bottom right corner when viewing Harding.edu. The goal is to provide better access to the content for those who find using a typical website challenging.
One of the main accessibility features of this tool is the ability to change the look or style on our website. Contrast can be an issue for many, as well as the size of fonts. This tool allows people to change that for our website as needed.
The other main feature is the option to change languages. This will not be perfect by any means, but it will translate most text to the chosen language. We do not have the ability to update or alter the translations, but we are hopeful this will help those for whom English is not their primary language.
