Summary:
"We are building a curated learning experience for business, obligated organizations, community groups* on Inclusive Design."
*for the exact wording of groups, see the Certified for Access project description.
What do we mean when we say we are making an "OER"?
* consolidation of content (like the Design Toolkit landing page)
* reframing
* better entry points - not buried in a thicket of the "Wiki garden"
What do we already have?
Possible Entry Points:
- document accessibility (ADOD), WCAG, ARIA
- The ID Guide should be presented as a resource to be used - some thought may need to be given to re-present some parts
- Engagement: Concrete -> Perspective Shift. How might we strcuture / present / strategize to guide them along the path?
- Tools section in the Guide may be the concrete things business audience are looking for immediately
- - In the Tools section there's little going back to other parts - perhaps enhance this.
- ADOD:
- - mostly up to date: includes Word, Acrobat
- - the value is in its specificity. Keeping it up to date in important.
- - perhaps a redesign at some point.
Specifications / Standards
- - should we make something like this?
Metadata - where does it fit overall? Do we want to make this more prevalent?
DIY bubble:
- micro computers
- - upcoming sonification prototyping tool
Other resources to include:
- - data visualization, sonification, dealing with big data
Questions:
- * Do we have any resources on dfinining "Customers"? (i.e. there may be no typical "customer" ... getting groups to think about their clients/customers/partners as a spectrum)
- * customer service - personalised options e.g. chat vs. phone
* How do our partner projects fit into this? i.e. Pressbooks under DIY? Sapling Learning as a case study?
* How do we present the idea that going beyond the spec, standard, etc is good and encouraged?
- * it may be implicit in some of our resources (i.e. Design Guide) but it may need to be more explicit.
- * How do we enable updating, adaptations, translations?
- * Are there tools already that can be used?
- How does this work with Razorfish?
- Razorfish will be making the Big Idea website
* Do we have a compiled list of examples of things like Good grips which are good examples of ID? Does one exist already?
* Look to quantify the benefits of ID:
What are we building:
* a resource / compilation in some digital form which will then be incorporated somehow into the Big Ideas website (which Razorfish is making).
* additional scaffolding and content required to flesh out obvious gaps.
* Changes to improve access:
- * info re-architecture (i.e. for the ILDH?)
- * Redesign (i.e. for ADOD?)
1. "Smaller" resources that can be integrated into our existing resources
2. Stand-alone resources which need increased visibility e.g. re-design, or creation of doc site etc
3. Consolidate/describe our resources from BIGIDeAS perspective (redefine entry points etc)
Other resource:
* presentations / slide decks / videos / other media?
* concrete examples are awesome
- i.e. web chat for customer service
- * case / success studies: Oxford Properties (they were at DEEP talking about how there were changing)
- *this would contribute to encouraging businesses to go beyond the standards etc
- * Resource / idea sharing:
- * how can this be done within groups: what tools are available? What are the benefits.
