system for university examination purposes that can be easily accessed
and used by students with visual impairments, with minimum effort required to
learn its use. The developed examination system allows students with visual
impairments to take suitably adapted online written examinations according to
their individual and personalized special characteristics and preferences for
reading digital text. Those special parameters and characteristics can be applied
as predefined user options to the examination platform. The user interface for
individuals with low vision is based on the selection of effective color contrast
and the principle of legible texts that students need in order to read and write
during examinations. Based on the above, it was considered necessary that special
parameters and characteristics had to be tested and determined by the end
users themselves with N Print tests.
