Re: [WSG] Accessibility Checklist in Simple English
Hi, The New Zealand Government has a checklist for its web guidelines (which include accessibility). Not all of the checkpoints will be relevant to non-government sites, but they may be a useful starting point, and are in reasonably plain english. The latest version is being reviewed at the moment, but version 1 is still available. http://www.e.govt.nz/web-guidelines/compliance-checklist.asp http://www.e.govt.nz/docs/web-guidelines-2-1/index.html On Thu, 02 Dec 2004 08:51:16 -0500, Justin Thorp <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I don't know if this is plain english.

Re: [WSG] Accessibility Checklist in Simple English
I don't know if this is plain english. The W3C has a check list for WCAG. http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG10/full-checklist.html They also publish a set of quicktips. These are very plain english. They can come on a card. They can be ordered for free from the W3C. http://www.w3.org/WAI/References/QuickTips/ The W3C Web Accessibility Initiative also has a curriculum that they have on their web site. http://www.w3.org/WAI/wcag-curric/oversam.htm Sincerely, Justin Thorp Web Developer and Accessibility Specialist Academic Computing & Network Services Michigan State University Herrod, Lisa wrote: Hi list I need to do some brief training at short notice on the WCAG priority 1 checkpoints and was just wondering if anyone had seen it in simple english. ie. for people who really don't have any coding experience? thanks in advance Lisa Regards Lisa Herrod Usability Analyst 02 9467 5047 --- <<...OLE_Obj...>> Sydney Melbourne 112 Alexander Street28 Drummond Street Crows Nest NSW 2065 Carlton South VIC 3053 P: 02 9467 5000 P: 03 9669 1700 F: 02 9467 5020 F: 03 9669 1799 www.testingcentre.com This e-mail is confidential, intended solely for the addressees, and may be legally privileged.
