  1. Which federal law most directly requires public colleges to provide effective communication accommodations such as CART for qualified students?

    Answer: ADA Title II and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act

    ADA Title II and Section 504 require public entities and federally funded programs to ensure effective communication for people with disabilities.

  2. A private business hires CART for a public seminar. Which ADA title primarily applies?

    Answer: Title III

    Title III covers public accommodations operated by private entities.

  3. What is the primary purpose of speaker identification in a CART transcript?

    Answer: To let the consumer know who is speaking at each point

    Speaker IDs give consumers the context hearing participants get from voices and direction of sound.

  4. Including notations such as [laughter] or [applause] in CART output primarily serves to:

    Answer: Convey meaningful nonverbal audio information to the consumer

    Sound descriptions communicate environmental audio cues that affect meaning and participation.

  5. A remote CART provider loses audio during a class. What is the best professional practice?

    Answer: Immediately notify the consumer and contact person through the agreed backup channel

    Prompt communication about technical failures allows the team to restore access quickly.

  6. Which best describes the difference between CART and meaning-for-meaning services such as TypeWell or C-Print?

    Answer: CART aims for verbatim real-time text, while meaning-for-meaning services condense content

    CART providers produce word-for-word output, whereas meaning-for-meaning transcription conveys the essential message in fewer words.

  7. A consumer asks the CART provider to also take personal notes summarizing key points for them. What is the most appropriate response?

    Answer: Explain that this is outside the CART role and refer them to the coordinator for note-taking services

    CART providers deliver real-time text and should refer additional service needs to the appropriate coordinator.
