3.2 Format columns and page structure to present a proper reading order to assistive technologies (do not rely on tables, TAB characters, etc.). When TAB characters are used to visually separate text and make it appear like columns, the reading order is garbled for screen reader users. Programmatic column formatting will maintain the correct reading order. Also, horizontal formatting of vertically arranged letters is difficult for low vision users to read, and since the text can be read one letter at a time, confusing for screen reader users. 1194.21(a); 1194.21(c); 1194.31(a); 1194.31(b); 1194.31(f) 4 Document Structure 4.1 Use programmatically discoverable headings to logically structure content, and avoid the skipping of heading levels. The use of styles and/or other programming allows keyboard-only and assistive technology users to navigate content. Applying bigger fonts, bold, underline, italic etc. does not programmatically set text as a heading. Skipped heading levels may lead screen reader users to believe there is missing information in the document. 1194.21(a); 1194.21(d); 1194.22(o); 1194.31(a); 1194.31(b); 1194.31(f) , page 52 , page 58 5 Paragraphs 5.1 Use paragraph spacing settings instead of carriage returns when additional line spacing is needed between paragraphs. Excess carriage returns are spoken by screen readers, interfering with normal reading. 1194.31(b) , page 64 6 Contrast
9.3 Supply a null alternative text value for decorative or formatting images (ALT="") so they are skipped by assistive technologies. Assistive technology need not hear every instance of decorative images on a page. This information interrupts reading content. Combining tiled and layered images allows a single image to associate with a single description. Images not grouped or combined may needlessly confuse users about what they are reading. 1194.31(a); 1194.31(b) , page 101 9.4 Information conveyed through color must also be conveyed textually. Users who are blind, low vision, or color blind require alternatives for information conveyed by color. In addition to static colors, this includes color used to indicate dynamic changes in status, alerts, errors, etc. 1194.21(i); 1194.22(c); 1194.31(a); 1194.31(b) , page 30 9.5 Use meaningful plain language for links and/or user controls. The name must describe the destination, function, and/or purpose of the user interface. Links and controls that repeat the same name should provide a unique and specific description for each. Users need to know the unique target or function of an interface. Sometimes the name or text of the link is sufficient and/or confusing. Users will need a unique name for links and/or user controls that repeat the same name but serve different purposes (i.e. when a link ‘Here’ appears multiple times give the link a unique description.) 1194.21(d); 1194.21(f); 1194.22(a); 1194.22(l); 1194.31(a); 1194.31(b) 1194.21(c) , page 46

To reinforce the unbiased reporting strategy presented by the media, it managed to present the alleged side of the story without distorting the messages and or judging the political gesture of defense, the article below portrays the press statement issued by the members of Zanu PF to the citizens of Zimbabwe. (Pindula.Com) Fellow Comrades and Friends) we are pleased to address you on behalf of all the members of ZANU (PF) who are determined to restore the image of our party. Needless to say, this is a response to the unprecedented and destructive events before, during and after the socalled “6th National People’s Congress” held unconstitutionally in December 2014, the summary expulsions and suspensions of loyal members and the imposition of party leadership by one person, effectively abandoning the “one man one vote” that we fought for. This statement states our position and concerns and those of the members we are representing. We also make reference to the contents and substance of Cde D.N.E Mutasa’s letter to the SADC Chairman in which he asserted the following points” grievances) Grievances 1. We are dismayed by the unlawful conduct leading up to and surrounding the purported congress 2. He indicated that we will remain married to the principles we fought for including, “one man one vote”, where majority rule prevails , which was not recognized in the recently unprocedurally amended ZANU PF constitution “adopted” at the illegal December meeting which masqueraded as a “Congress”. It gives all votes to the First Secretary and President alone and also violates the supreme law of the country. It is therefore, in the eyes of the majority of Zanu PF members, null and void along with all that transpired at and the purported resolutions at the so called “Congress”. 3. We call on ZANU PF to operate as it did before the so called 6th congress, which itself was unlawful. 4. We also appeal to all party members everywhere to remain peaceful as we strive for the democracy that we fought for. 5. This meeting was flawed, and held outside of Zanu PF own constitutional guidelines.

What is WordPress? WordPress is a tool that allows one to design a blog (i.e. web log) or an entire e-portfolio. Baylor University uses a WordPress-based blogging service which is hosted by Edublogs, a company that specializes in large-scale WordPress implementations for colleges and universities. This platform allows you to select themes, plug-ins, headers, and widgets to personalize your WordPress site. A blog is a contraction of “web log”. Blogs can be started and maintained free of charge, or can by sponsored financially by the blogger, a university, a corporation, or a group. A blog allows everyone a chance to promote, research, write articles, build links (blogrolls), exchange ideas and best practices, and interact with others on personal, professional, corporate, political, and social issues and topics. The opening page is called the front page. Blogs mainly consists of two items: Posts designed for content that rarely changes do not have a timestamp Others don’t update Blogs/websites may have many pages cannot be assigned categories or tags designed for content that varies often have a timestamp; automatically arranged in reverse chronological order others can contribute content have many posts but only one “post” page can be assigned categories or tags Developing your WordPress Site, go to: blogs.baylor.edu Viewing your Wordpress Site, go to: blogs.baylor.edu/yourloginname Sample “Theme” Sample “Page”

Since the primary goal of the unit is to develop creative thinking and writing skills, learners should be encouraged to do their free writing and initial creative work in their native language. This will provide bilingual students with opportunities to make connections between two languages through a creative-thinking process. Students then can translate their writings into English, which will further support their English development. Point out to students that many successful songs are written in one language and then translated and recorded in another. Note: Rhyming may be too challenging for students who are translating their work into English. Translations will be acceptable if they do not rhyme.

In the REAL world, people aren’t usually handed a set of equations, and told to “solve for x”. However, we are often faced with problems for which writing an equation can be helpful. The sum of x and -19 x + (-19) 4 less than the product of 5 and y 5y – 4 Twice the difference of 12 and x is 14 2(12 – x) = 14 8 less than the quotient of m and -3 equals -9 Allison makes n dollars per hour, and her boss gave her a raise of $2 more per hour. Write an expression how much she will make if she works for 40 hours. n + 2 her hourly rate with the raise 40(n + 2) how much she makes in 40 hrs. Davis is donating 2/5 of his savings to his school. If he donates $77.60, how much did he have in savings? Also, consider using properties of rational numbers. (fractions & decimals) 0.4x = $77.60 Translate each statement below to an expression or equation. Words… Math! 1) the sum of m and -18 2) x increased by -25 3) twice the difference of x and -3 4) of x is -12 5) 8 less than x divided by -2 equals 4 6) 25% of x is 55 Let’s also look at other ways of expressing math: Cobb County adds a 6% tax to most items sold. If an item costs x dollars, what will the price be after tax? x + 0.06x = 1.06x So, an “increase of 6%” is the SAME as multiplying by 1.06 original price tax total 7) Your bill at Red Lobster is y dollars. You decide to give your server a 20% tip. Write an expression for the total cost. 8) There’s a 30%-off sale on Falcons jerseys! Write an expression for the total cost. 9) Halloween candy, c, goes on a 75%-off sale in November. Write an expression for the cost.

Think back to your Do Now, about the emotion you once experienced- do you think that experience would make a good poem? Why or why not? I WANDERED lonely as a That floats on high o'er vales and hills, When all at once I saw a crowd, A host, of golden daffodils; Beside the lake, beneath the trees, Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.
