This document provides an overview of Week 11 of a course which focuses on accessibility (A11y). It discusses using tools like WAVE and Lighthouse to audit websites for accessibility and performance. Students used various content management systems and provided feedback that identified 17 issues. The final project will involve a recommendation for how to create sustainable open educational resources (OER). A guest speaker from Penn State will discuss accessibility. Links are provided to explore accessibility further using tools from the Chrome Web Store.
