Challenge
The Neurodiversity Alliance had long relied on traditional survey platforms, but these tools fell short in a critical area: accessibility. Many of their existing platforms lacked features to support diverse learning needs, such as auditory assistance or voice-based responses. This gap in accessibility posed a significant challenge for an organization whose mission is to create inclusive environments.
Text-based questions with written responses dominated their surveys, excluding individuals who might benefit from voice interactions. They needed a solution that would not only enhance inclusivity but also engage their audience in a way that aligned with their mission and values.
Solution
This accessibility-focused approach allowed the organization to create surveys that resonated with its diverse audience and directly supported its goals of inclusivity and engagement.
By using Voiceform, The Neurodiversity Alliance was able to:
Customize Accessibility Features: Tailor surveys to accommodate a range of learning differences, ensuring every student can interact easily.
Enhance User Experience: Students found the surveys intuitive and enjoyable to navigate without external assistance, which is crucial in their after-school programs.
Result
The impact of adopting Voiceform was profound:
- Positive Feedback from Students: Many students report feeling more comfortable and excited to participate, a rarity for traditional surveys.
- Improved Engagement: The surveys spark enthusiasm among students, transforming an often mundane task into an interactive experience.
- High-Quality Data Collection: Despite varied environments and devices, Voiceform delivers clear voice recordings, exceeding the Alliance’s expectations.
For The Neurodiversity Alliance, the integration of Voiceform has been more than just a technology upgrade—it’s been a game changer. By providing an accessible, engaging, and inclusive way to collect feedback, The Neurodiversity Alliance is now better equipped to support its community and further its mission of celebrating neurodiversity.
