<h3 align="center"><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">CitySpeak-
Self Voicing Urban Planning Tool </font></h3>
<p><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">CitySpeak is an interactive
geography learning tool being developed by the University of Toronto's Adaptive Technology Resource Centre (ATRC) offering students the opportunity to design
and construct their own cities. </font></p>
<p><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">The current geography
curriculum in Ontario emphasizes the practical application of learned
skills. In CitySpeak, teachers and students are able to design a starting
landscape – complete with different types of terrain and geographical
features. This initial landscape can then be transformed into a variety of cityscapes by placing urban elements onto the pre-set map. Students are then required to justify their location and element choices by writing a supporting report for their city. CitySpeak
reinforces understanding of elements of geographical features, land-use considerations,
urban planning styles and protocols, as well as community needs and concerns.</font></p>
<p><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Unlike other urban planning
tools, CitySpeak offers a fully accessible interactive learning experience designed
to engage all learners regardless of ability. </font></p>
<p><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Accessibility Features
of CitySpeak include: </font></p>
<p>
<ul>
<li><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Complete keyboard accessible
</font></li>
<li><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Self-voicing </font></li>
<li><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">High contrast graphics
and easy-to-use interface </font></li>
