WAI Curricula/unit 5 review

From Education & Outreach

About this page

This page summarizes the survey results for review of the "Applying and Managing Accessibility" teaching unit. It is intended to collect the main issues raised and to support EOWG discussion, to further refine the work on WAI Curricula. This is not an exhaustive list of all comments received but a summary of some of the main issues.

Comments on question "Overall Structure"

  • Order of topics:
    • Should accessibility policy come first?
    • Should it be treated as a transversal approach?
  • Training needs to be mentioned.
    • Maybe as another "Topic" for "applying and managing Web Accessibility"?
    • Maybe within the already present "Planning and Managind Web Accessibility?

Comments on question "Planning and Managing Web Accessibility"

  • Teaching activities structure.
  • "Ensuring Accessibility has approval and backing from management", needs more emphasis.
    • To which degree?
    • Should we start the teaching activities by emphasizing this and make the other activities revolve around it?
  • Key processes for planning and managing: QA, EMT...

Comments on question "Accessibility Roles and Responsibilities"

  • Students doing their own accessibility tree.

Comments on question "Developing Policies on Web Accessibility"

  • Should we include accessibility statements in the general accessibility policies topic? Are they a separate entity?

Comments on question "Accessibility in an on-going project"

  • EasyChecks: Provided that there is a resource named [Easy Checks https://www.w3.org/WAI/test-evaluate/preliminary/] (currently in the process of being updated) should we look for more resources here or stick to the outcomes of the current work for this one/


Comments on question "Anything Else?"

  • Grammar, spelling, and other fixes
