When completing assignments in FlatWorld Homework there are several visual accessibility options available to you. This article details the visual accessibility features of the Homework platform only. For more information on FlatWorld's accessibility commitments and policies see our Accessibility page.
To access the visual accessibility tools, click the "Accessibility" button which is the second button from the left at the top of the screen:
โ
This will open the "Accessibility Options" dialog box.
If you are on a small screen or mobile device you should instead click the three horizontal lines in the upper left corner to open the menu, then select "Accessibility" there.
Color Scheme
There are six color schemes available to suit varying accessibility needs including high and low contrast options. The options are:
Black on white (default)
Grey on light grey
Purple on light green
Black on violet
Yellow on navy
White on black
To change to one of the other options, click on it on the list to implement it, including on the dialog box. To confirm your selection click "OK" in the dialog box, and you will be returned to your assignment, now with the selected color scheme.
Font Size
To change the font size on your assignments select the second tab, labeled "Font size" in the Accessibility options dialog box. Then, select the font size you want to use from the available list. As with the color scheme, to set your answer and return to your assignment click "OK".
Zoom
If the font options are insufficient or you need to enlarge an image (which will not be affected by the font size options, although numbers, equations, and tables will be), you can follow the instructions in the "Zoom" tab if you are on a laptop or desktop computer. The directions will be suited to your device.
