<scribe> new/need
Brent: Ant questions?
ant/any
Brent: Thanks for the work Hidde new updates are coming
Brent: Howard and Estella are in the group. If you have any update please let us know. We are currently working in the developers community. We have a template to invite experts to help with the curricula development. We want to target specific persons.
Try to target it to specific persons, unless you know a specific group.
Any questions on the invitation?
Feel free to invite people because work is planned for a large period of time.
Task force group aims to include success criteria in the learning outcomes. There is a need to define learning outcomes and the level of definitions. There is a need to get success criteria. Also it is important to make learning outcomes specific
The three areas are 1) how to include success criteria in learning outcomes, 2) making learning outcomes more specific and 3) use the word understanding in the learning outcomes.
<brent> Email about current Curricula questions: https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-wai-curricula/2020Apr/0015.html
Howard: understand is action oriented
Brent: You try to go away from
ambiguos words such understanding
... Questions?
<shawn> Estella: we agree "understand" not good enough
Another bullet under the WAI curricula is that any participant can join the mailing list and watch the work that is being done.
Brent: Any questions about the WAI curricula?
Brent: Hidde will walk as thorough. Kevin today sent an email to editors about ideas and thoughts.
Hidde: He created a couple of
scenarios to post to developers
... There are 2 new scenarios: one for university scenario,
people teaching at university and the other is people new to
accessibility. People new to accessibility from a developer
perspective.
Brent: The term medior is used and is not common in the US
What is the solid definition of that terms?
I want to make sure that words are understandable. I was not familiar with that. I am fine using this word but not sure if it fits.
Howard: I do not think is much used in the US
Hidde: In the Netherlands it is used.
<shawn> [ mid-level ]
Brent: In the US is mid level and I am fine with whatever term
<Laura> I've heard mid-level developer but it's not used often
<shawn> Estella: have had this discussion - have expert, have educator, then mediators - the mediator does not do the action themselves, they communicate ...
<Zakim> shawn, you wanted to respond to Estella
Shawn: I think that the word that Hidde used is too close to "mediator" and maybe it should be changed
This is the requirements analysis and will not be published.
Brent: If terminology is only at the requirement level then it is fine. We are not changing any documents.
Helen: It is important to defferentiate the level of expertise.
Brent: Any other comments or
questions?
... We will look for further updates.
... I do not know the current timeline
Hidde: There is not a specific timeline
Shawn: Just to note that we renamed the group into accessibility education and outreach group
name change to "Accessibility Education and Outreach Working Group (EOWG)"
Shawn: Comments on that?
... The advisory committee will approve or make objections
It is good to get supporting AC to complete the survey soon.
Shawn: I encourage to get to your
AC rep to answer the survey. If any questions or issues, they can contact me
directly.
... the review will be 6 weeks due to the COVID
... It is open until 12th of June and support statements are
still welcome.
<brent> Estella: Our organization has already completed review survey.
Howard: I can also write something to interesting groups and ask for instance ACM recommendations

Shawn: That is a good point at the moment we have the survey open for W3C members. But to have additional recommendations are good to have. We might need to more actively gather those soon, or maybe nice to have but not required now.
Brent: Thank you Shawn for the work on the Charter.
Helen: I would need to know the
AC rep
... Also do we need more members in the EOWG? Even if they are
not W3C members
Shawn: There is different criterias for members and non-members of W3C.
