Quels sont aujourd’hui selon vous les enjeux majeurs dans le champ de l’accessibilité ? L’accessibilité des sites Internet est un enjeu social majeur. Rendre les sites Internet accessibles, c’est permettre à des personnes handicapées de communiquer, de s’informer, de chercher et de trouver du travail, d’effectuer des démarches administratives et de commander des produits en ligne sans avoir obligatoirement à se déplacer […]

It’s no accident that both Section 508, 1194.21(c), and WCAG 2.0 Success Criterion 2.4.7 both call for visible focus indication. Users with mobility/dexterity disabilities often rely on keyboard accessibility, perhaps using assistive technologies (such as mouth sticks) that rely on the keyboard […]

Access iQ, Amajjika Kumara (2012-09-14)
Coming from a project management and marketing background, I have a tendency to look at life as one big checklist — tell me what needs to get done, I’ll work though all the points and deliver. Being new to web accessibility and creating an organisation focused on web accessibility from the ground up, I quickly learned that a checklist mentality does not provide the right environment for accessibility principles to become part of organisational processes […]

In agile development, user stories capture what a user does or needs to do with the website or application. These “stories” are the basis for defining the functions that the system must provide and concisely captures the who, what and why or of the requirement […]

NCDAE Blog, Cyndi (2012-09-10)
Lately I’ve been struck with this phrase; “We value what we measure rather than measure what we value.” In a postsecondary culture of measurement and transparency, it is good for us to think about the ways in which our own institutional data help us measure those things that we value. For us at the National Center on Disability and Access to Education (NCDAE), something we value dearly is the education outcome for any student with a disability. However, it is unclear that these data are available at most postsecondary institutions […]
