Experience IT: Testing IT Accessibility

Thursday, February 23, 2012 | 10:30AM–11:15AM | Galleria North, Ballroom Level
Session Type: Professional Development
The Experience IT format offers a hands-on, highly interactive introduction to newer tools and technologies so you can explore their potential impact in the workplace and classroom and on your professional development. Please bring your laptop or other session-specific technology (such as smartphone or tablet) to the session so you can engage with the presenter. Seating will be offered on a first-come, first-served basis. Can everyone use the technologies you're using, including individuals with disabilities? In this session we will explore techniques for testing web pages and applications using screen readers and free web accessibility evaluation tools and plugins.
