Catching Up with Accessibility: Beginner's Basics (tutorial)

If you're just getting started in web accessibility or if you want to make sure you have the basics covered, this class is for you. It provides you with a solid foundation for understanding how people with disabilities use the web, experiencing common web accessibility barriers, and learning the easy things and the most important things you can do now to get up to speed on accessibility. We'll focus mostly on the user experience aspects of web accessibility, and mention a little about the underlying code. (You don't need to know HTML or coding to get a lot from this class.) For those who want to learn about checking/evaluating web accessibility, this class provides a good basis for tomorrow's class, "Easy Checks for Web Accessibility: Get the Gist (No Experience Necessary)."
