The On-Ramp website is a set of lessons and extra materials that help people with developmental disabilities use a computer and the Internet. As of now, there are four sets of lessons. Each lesson has the same format and extra materials that add information, give practice, or are just fun.

These lessons cover the most basic things people need to learn to get started using a computer and the Internet. 

We call each set of lessons a section. The sections include:

• Computer Basics
• The Internet
• Introduction to Email
• Email Politeness and Safety

Each section includes several individual lessons. Each lesson follows a simple-to-navigate format. Example lessons include The Machines, Booting Up & Shutting Down, Keyboard, and Mouse. These are all in the section Computer Basics.

Visitors navigate through each lesson using clear, large navigation buttons and can increase or decrease the lesson text size to suit individual need. Each page of every lesson has a voice option for people who would like the page read aloud. People can work at their own pace. They can move forward or go back at any time. 

We provide several features to improve make the lessons easy to use. These accessibility features include:

• Audio recording of all lesson text
• Increased font size for visitors with visual impairments
• Large navigation buttons
• Simple and clear language
• Screenshots to show people what the text is talking about
• Definitions for hard words
• WCAG AAA (Triple-A) conformity in text contrast

Many lessons have supplementary materials support the lesson or take it further. Some of these materials are links to videos, games, and information on other websites. Some of the materials are pages we wrote ourselves to give more information or provide reminders of what was taught. We try to make it easy to get back to the lesson after someone follows a link that takes them to another website or another part of the On-Ramp site.
