SCAN-IT  (Research based)

The Student Campus Accessibility Needs Information Tool (SCAN-IT), is a consumer driven assessment tool to gather data at the student-level concerning campus accessibility experiences and challenges. The survey evolved into the current SCAN-IT over several iterations, including validation as the Accessible Campus Environment Survey (ACES), also found on this website. It is presented here as an Excel chart, though it is intended for use in a software program called X-FACT, which utilizes a scaling strategy called Trichotomous Tailored Sub-branching Scaling (TTSS).

"We cannot afford to let the issue of disabilities be simply an afterthought. We have a unique opportunity now, as industry pours billions of dollars into upgrading the communications infrastructure, to make sure that people with disabilities are not left behind. Now is the time. Accessibility of services and products for all Americans has got to be a design feature, not an add-on."

Chairman Kennard, Federal Communications Commission (FCC), Statement on Video Description, 11/18/99
