Activity 19.1

Read the guidance resources in the next sections and make notes on:
  • the level of detail – is the technical level suitable for you in your role?
  • is the guidance complete – does it provide links to further information?
  • would you recommend this guidance to anyone else in your organisation who needs this information?


Very detailed resource covering many aspect of e-learning. This includes images, forms, tables, Interactivity, Graphs, Math, Multimedia. Seems very detailed, maybe a bit too much. I think I will use this but probably not recommend to anyone in my organisation.

WCAG 2.0 at a Glance

This looks like a very usable list of guidelines, not over technical so I would definitely recommend colleagues to take a look. From this page you can also go very deep into each area that needs to be made accessible.

Screen Readers and the Web


Dyslexia Style Guide

Very useful resource, as our main disability is dyslexia this will be useful. Although most of the guidelines are already in place.

Seems very similar to the site above.

Accessible PowerPoint – Guidelines

Very simple but good advice

Same as above ppt ones

Seems like a good resource, lots of detail on how to make a pdf accessible.

Using Adobe tools to make accessible content

Bit boring

Creating Accessible PDF from MS Word 2003

Lot's of detail, would I use it? Probably not.

Creating Accessible Flash content

Nice site, I use flash so know most of what is stated.

Flash

Same as above.

Audio description



Too much info

Very interesting, youtube are giving the ability to auto caption content. Lets hope it works well.


Gives a useful list of software for captioning of videos.
