[Accessibleweb] Monthly Web Accessibility/Usability Meet-up, Thu 8/11/22 at 10 AM PT

[Mikey S Wilson]

Hi everyone,

It is almost time for our monthly Web Accessibility/Usability Meet-up!
Please join us for another casual and friendly virtual meeting to discuss some accessibility challenges.

Topic 1: Review website/applications
Reviewing your site/application for accessibility is the main component of this meet-up and we all learn from such reviews.
As always, let me know if you would like to review your site/application for accessibility.

Topic 2: Technology & Social Change Group (TASCHA) Website Accessibility
Kat Chung, who is the Communications Manager at the Technology & Social Change group (TASCHA), would like help identifying any  accessibility issues or areas for improvement on the TASCHA website (https://tascha-web01.s.uw.edu/). The TASCHA website is the most outward-facing communication platform the group uses. It's visited by existing and potential collaborators, funders, partners, students and many others. It was last updated in 2012 and in desperate need of updating. In 2019, Kat started the process of overhauling the entire site in collaboration with Creative Communications at UW (C2) and now it's almost finally launched!

About Monthly Web Accessibility/Usability Meet-up

Our meetings usually consist of two 30 minute segments. The first 30 minutes of our meetings are dedicated to casually reviewing your projects. This generally includes lots of hands on testing and code review. If you are working on a project and would like to get accessibility feedback from your peers, please let us know and we will add it to the agenda. We always encourage you to bring your own sites and topics, as it is a great learning experience for everyone.

Then for the last half of the meeting we have some topics we would like to bring to you to discuss, although we may not have time to cover all of them in depth.
