Accessible custom radio buttons and checkboxesRuss Weakley
Creating custom-designed radio buttons and checkboxes has never been easy. Many developers have found ways of hacking these elements using CSS and JavaScript. but can they also be accessible. The answer is yes, with a little extra effort. This presentation will walk through some simple examples to show how radio buttons and checkboxes can be semantic as well as keyboard/screen-reader accessible.

Integrating accessibility in the organization's web development lifecycleAccessibilitéWeb
Web accessibility standards introduce inclusion concerns for people with disabilities that disrupt traditional patterns within organizations. These standards challenge development practices that are often considered to be tried and true. Introducing these guidelines to a web development team leads to changes in practices that may jeopardize a project's profitability. While accessibility principles are generally not difficult to implement, the amount of details to consider while doing so is significant and therefore, the risks of falling into certain traps abound. Based on a theoretical workflow model anyone can relate to, this training session will explain how Web accessibility, unlike other Web-related practices, is characterized by the fact that it influences every aspect of the web development lifecycle. This means that accessibility is not just another specialist the project manager needs to squeeze in the traditional process. Rather, web accessibility requires every member of the team to understand the requirements that may affect the work they do in order to ensure that proper decisions are being made at the best possible time in the project. The training session will conclude with a distribution of WCAG 2.0's success criteria, based on the responsibilities each individual holds within the development team. Sharing these requirements between team members will ensure the success of the accessibility goals in all phases of production.
JavaScript and Accessibility: Creating Interface Magic for EveryoneDerek Featherstone
In this talk I look at a few ways in which JavaScript actually helps make web sites more accessible despite the bad name it might have in some accessibility circles.
Presented at ConfabEdu in Atlanta, Georgia, November 11, 2013, Derek Featherstone shows us several lessons about making our content more accessible to people with visual, cognitive, hearing, and mobility/dexterity related disabilities.

Presented at ConfabEdu in Atlanta, Georgia, November 11, 2013, Derek Featherstone shows us several lessons about making our content more accessible to people with visual, cognitive, hearing, and mobility/dexterity related disabilities.
WCAG 2.0 became a W3C Recommendation three years ago. Now various public administrations around the globe wanting to ensure the accessibility of their digital communications strategies and online presence, are preparing to adopt WCAG as their accessibility standard. However, history shows us that accessibility experts have raised countless heated debates on how to best implement these guidelines. If field experts cannot agree on the most effective interpretations, how can we expect regular Web project stakeholders, who are not accessibility specialists, to agree on a common understanding or interpretation? It is already hard enough for organizations to implement the various success criteria of WCAG 2.0 on a single website; how much more difficult does this become when the goal is to do so across every website an organization owns? How can an organization make their websites consistently accessible to people with disabilities and aging populations, when no one agrees on what must be done and how it should be done? But what if there was a way to build a common general understanding of the intentions behind these success criteria? Wouldn’t this help in implementing WCAG 2.0 more consistently? This training session will demonstrate how accessibility standards can be broken down into a series of requirements that ensure all stakeholders in a Web project, regardless of their level of expertise with the accessibility guidelines, come up with similar interpretations and more importantly, implementations so everyone manages to get along when the time comes to understand and implement WCAG 2.0.
My closing Keynote from Edge of the Web 2011 in which I talked about patterns in our behaviour as web professionals, about pushing ourselves all the time with very little recovery and some business lessons that we can learn from athletic endeavours.
Content strategists are in a unique position to effectively champion accessibility within their teams and organizations. You are trusted advisors and connect with all the right stakeholders for a project, including the people that will use the product you're building. You are often the person that connects the big picture with in the trenches hands-on work.
Filled with practical advice and examples from real projects, this session will provide you with an in-depth look at accessibility requirements for content on the modern web, recognize opportunities for ensuring that your work and that of your teams is as accessible as it can be as you integrate accessibility into your overall process.
You'll learn:
* How people with disabilities use the web and how that influences your content and its consumption
* How you can use accessibility as a tool to simply create content that is better for everyone
* Four cornerstone principles of accessibility that should guide all your content creation
Accessible design: which everyone do you mean? CSUN 2015Derek Featherstone
Originally presented at OpenWebCamp 6 in 2014 and then again (shortened) at CSUN 2015.
When you design for everyone, do you really mean everyone, or do you actually STILL mean that you're designing for people like you? Do you still mean the Western world? Do you still mean building for screen reader users?
For many of my early years as a web developer, I called what I created accessible, but in many ways, I meant screen reader compatible. Through working with different people with disabilities and different assistive technologies, you'll learn new things that don't have anything to do with guidelines, rules, or success criteria. And that's okay -- those rules and success criteria are an incredible starting point. But they aren't our end point. Not if we truly mean "everyone."
In this session we'll look at designing for audiences other than screen readers. In fact, you'll hear NOTHING about screen reader accessibility in this talk. You'll hear about other audiences: people with mobility or dexterity impairments, low-vision, and even different literacy or cultural differences. You'll learn several practical takeaways to help you design and build things that go beyond screen reader compatible.
My opening keynote from Accessibility Camp Boston 2012 - where I talked about Accessibility, Design, Innovation and using accessibility as a design tool to make designs better for everyone, whether they have a disability or not.
At first glance, CSS line-height seems very simple, but there is a lot going on below the surface. Line-height is important for any designer or front end developer to understand as it can impact almost every aspect of our layouts.
This talk will look at a range of common application components and how they can be made accessible - quickly and easily - for all users. We'll look at how to notify users when changing the DOM after page load. We will also look in-depth at accessible form validation, modal windows and adding additional information for screen reader users.
Accessible UX: Beyond the checklist to great experiencesWhitney Quesenbery
Checklists, standards, and even patterns can only make sure that basic rules are followed. Even products that meet standards can be difficult or even impossible to use.
But the questions we want to focus on are:
- How easy, useful, efficient, and delightful is this?
- Is this something people want to use?
- Is it a great experience?

Creating a Simple, Accessible On/Off SwitchRuss Weakley
Have you ever tried to style checkboxes or radio buttons and ended up pulling your hair out? This presentation will explore a few simple tricks that can be used to style checkboxes and radio buttons. In this case, we will make them look like an on/off switch.
Selfish Accessibility: WordCamp Toronto 2014Adrian Roselli
We can all pretend that we’re helping others by making web sites accessible, but we are really making the web better for our future selves. Learn some fundamentals of web accessibility and how it can benefit you (whether future you from aging or you after something else limits your abilities). We’ll review simple testing techniques, basic features and enhancements, coming trends, and where to get help. This isn’t intended to be a deep dive into ARIA, but more of an overall primer for those who aren’t sure where to start nor how it helps them.
Get it right the first time through cheap and easy DIY usability testingDesignHammer
At it’s most basic, usability is about insuring something, such as a website, works well. Without usability testing results, design and functionality decisions are based on opinion. Despite the understood importance, many organizations believe usability testing is too expensive and time consuming to fit their budget and schedule. We will show how usability tests can be performed both quickly and inexpensively using popular DIY usability techniques. We will cover both analog and online tools for user surveys, card sorting, tree testing, first click testing, and user testing. You don’t need a lot of participants either—many valuable tests may be performed with as few as five subjects.

Creation of visualizations based on Linked DataAlvaro Graves
A common task with any relatively large amount of data is to create visual representations that help users to make sense of such data and observe trends that otherwise would be hard for them to appreciate. The creation of these visual- izations usually requires some knowledge in a programming language, making it difficult for non-technical savvy users to create visualizations. In this paper we present Visualbox, a system that makes it easier for non-programmers to create web visualizations based on Linked Data. These visualiza- tions can be accessed by any modern web browser and can be easily embedded in web pages and blogs. We describe how people can create visualizations using Visualbox and we show examples of work done by real users. Finally we present a study that shows that Visualbox makes it easier for users to create Linked Data-based visualizations.

Introduction to Accessibility Testing - CSUN14Patrick Dunphy
Intended for people new to accessibility testing, this session details freely available testing tools and how they relate to identifying different user issues.
In this presentation, Mike walks through the philosophical shift of treating the servers that you have in-house as if they were part of a “cloud” and disposable, and then jumps into a technical demonstration of how to actually tear down and reconstruct your infrastructure at a moment’s notice.
Web accessibility refers to the inclusive practice of removing barriers that prevent interaction with, or access to, websites by people with disabilities. When your website is inaccessible, research shows you could be excluding up to 20 percent of your visitors from interacting with your content and functionality. If your university website is inaccessible, you could be preventing access to education, student services, and more.
When your website is accessible, everyone can consume your information freely. Visually-impaired users can visit your website using a screen reader. Those who can’t use a mouse can navigate your site using a keyboard or other input device.
While creating accessible websites involves every step, including design and content, the foundation for good accessibility starts with good markup. Join my workshop to learn more about accessibility and how to program a high-quality user experience that is inclusive and beneficial to all.
Website Accessibility: It’s the Right Thing to doDesignHammer
Website Accessibility refers to the idea that people of all abilities and disabilities be able to access online content. These disabilities can impair vision, hearing, and movement. Since the early days of the web, accessibility focus in the US has been on government run, and government funded websites. This may soon change. Even if the new regulations don’t apply to your business, learn what is involved in making your website accessible to better serve your customers. It’s the right thing to do.
AccessU 2018 - Introduction to User ResearchKate Walser
AccessU 2018: “It’s too expensive to do testing.” “We don’t have time.” “We can’t find any users.” If that these sound like something your team might say, this session’s for you! Come learn how - with a little creativity and planning - you can find and learn from users in time for your next release.
Learn about different user research methods (e.g., interviews, personas, testing, and more) exist for your project

In a May 9, 2024 paper, Juri Opitz from the University of Zurich, along with Shira Wein and Nathan Schneider form Georgetown University, discussed the importance of linguistic expertise in natural language processing (NLP) in an era dominated by large language models (LLMs).
The authors explained that while machine translation (MT) previously relied heavily on linguists, the landscape has shifted. “Linguistics is no longer front and center in the way we build NLP systems,” they said. With the emergence of LLMs, which can generate fluent text without the need for specialized modules to handle grammar or semantic coherence, the need for linguistic expertise in NLP is being questioned.
