I think that overall the clicker audit is a useful resource. My only suggestion would be to add more to the programming section i.e. does the clicker require batteries/charging? Is this clearly labeled and does it require fine motor skills?

The clicker audit was quite useful, but not extensive as it could be. It mentioned the size and contrast of the buttons, also auditory assistance, but nothing for if someone was blind. What about the use of braille on the buttons?

I think this audit thought of a lot of important things to look for in making a clicker both accessible and usable. One thing that may need to also be looked at is the price, and how much it would cost to have more features.

It took me several years of struggling with the heavy door to my building, sometimes having to wait until a person stronger came along, to realize that the door was an accessibility problem, not only for me, but for others as well. And I did not notice, until one of my students pointed it out, that the lack of signs that could be read from a distance at my university forced people with mobility impairments to expend a lot of energy unnecessarily, searching for rooms and offices. Although I have encountered this difficulty myself on days when walking was exhausting to me, I interpreted it, automatically, as a problem arising from my illness (as I did with the door), rather than as a problem arising from the built environment having been created for too narrow a range of people and situations.
