Criteria for what to include

Shawn Lawton Henry edited this page Aug 12, 2022 · 9 revisions

Published version: How to Make Your Presentations Accessible to All

We want to make this as straightforward and simple as feasible.
We also want to cover all relevant accessibility issues.
Yet the more we include, the more overwhelming it is.

Therefore we probably don't want to include every single related accessibility issue.

What parameters do we use to help determine whether or not to include specific guidance?
(For example, here is the criteria for including a check in "easy checks")

Include:

  • Guidance for speakers/presenters, organizers, participants
  • ...

Do not include (out of scope):

  • Specific guidance on making handout files themselves accessible, e.g., PowerPoint reading order (link to resources instead)
  • Specific guidance on making multimedia accessible, point to Making Audio and Video Media Accessible
  • Specific guidance on physical facility accessibility (link to resources instead)
  • Specific guidance on remote platform accessibility, point to Accessibility of Remote Meetings, section on selecting an accessible remote meeting platform
  • Considerations for food for in-person
  • details on selecting and hiring captioner, sign language interpreters, etc.
