NOTE: the learning management system used at SHU, Canvas, meets accessibility requirements (at its base). The following resources, guidelines and checklists were created to be used in assessing instructor-created materials, including materials uploaded to Canvas, as well as any websites and other online materials housed outside of Canvas.
Graphic Design (www.AcceDe.Info) (Manual) This manual provides guidelines for making graphic design and forms comply with WCAG 2.0 standards. Excellent resource for graphic designers and PR teams. Includes information about navigation, font, color contrast, hyperlinks, tables, forms and multimedia. http://wiki.accede-web.com/en/notices/graphique-ergonomique HTML and Web Accessibility (Videos) AMAC’s training video on web accessibility is recommended for IT and web development staff. This module contains 9 lessons, which range from 5 to 20 minutes in length each. Expect to spend about two hours watching this video if you choose to watch the whole module from start to finish. Web developers, who are already familiar with the basics of web accessibility, may want to skip straight to Lessons 6.1 and 6.2: Fixing Web Accessibility Issues. The stated learning objectives of this module are to: define web accessibility, review common terminology used in web design and development, understand how users with accessibility needs access the web, evaluate website for accessibility issues using online tools, remediate code to make a website accessible, and discover how HTML5 and ARIA can be used to enhance website accessibility. HTML and CSS (AcceDe.Info) (Manual) This manual provides easy to understand guidelines for making web pages accessible. Topics include structure, metadata, images, links, forms, CSS and more. This manual assures conformance with WCAG 2.0. http://wiki.accede-web.com/en/notices/html-css?DokuWiki=2cmm738n2sf2iuhup68sn4hl64 |
