: **In class Exercise**
<!-- - Implement a visualization using [VoxLens](https://github.com/athersharif/voxlens) following the documentation and examples on the GitHub repository. -->
- Use VoxLens from to test different modes of making visualizations accessible (Summary, Sonification, Question-and-Answer) on different visualization types.
- Identify the utility of each mode with each visualization type–when is one mode more suitable than the other and why.
- Identify accessibility measures for demographics other than screen-reader users.
- Discuss: Is any particular technique better suited than the others when considering visualizations types? What other techniques are worth exploring? Could ML help with this?
