MAKÜ, initiated the full accessibility period on its website

Previously, within the scope of the Barrier-Free University Awards, MAKÜ, which was entitled to receive the Accessibility in Space (Orange Flag), Accessibility in Education (Green Flag), and Accessibility in Socio-Cultural Activities (Blue Flag) awards, has now strengthened accessibility in the digital environment.

MAKÜ's main website and all unit websites have been made compliant with accessibility standards for students, employees, and visitors with visual and hearing impairments. Thanks to the new application, all users have equal opportunities in the digital environment. Thanks to this comprehensive work, especially disabled students will be able to use the websites much more comfortably, quickly, and independently.

The developed accessibility features include:

• Screen reader support and automatic narration of content
• Correct language detection for Turkish and English content
• Options to start, stop, and close speech instantly
• Visual accessibility with high contrast mode
• Distinct focus indicators for keyboard navigation
• Simple usage with the option to reduce animations
• Support for increasing text size up to 50% and page zoom
• Single-click setting option with a fixed accessibility button on the right side
• Instant application of settings without refreshing the page.
