Hi all,<br>

Cost Analysis Survey</h1>
<p>GOALS is engaged in the beginnings of a cost study on web
accessibility in higher education. We are interested in gaining
the opinions of others on protocols that will be developed. We
would appreciate your input in responding to the following three
questions.</p>
<p> <label for="studies">If you are aware of cost studies that
others have done on web accessibility, please provide links or
other information on these studies:</label><br>
<textarea name="studies" id="studies" cols="65" rows="5"></textarea>
</p>
<hr>
<p>Measures of the cost of accessibility must be based on a
reasonable standard of accessibility. Section 508 is a standard
used by many institutions. However, it is dated, incomplete, and
may be updated before this study is concluded. The Web Content
Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0 represent the most up-to-date
and comprehensive accessibility guidelines, but we felt that Level
A might not be inclusive enough and Level AA was possibly a bit
too comprehensive for this study. We have decided that our
standard for accessibility will be WCAG 2.0 Level A plus two AA
Success Criteria: 1.4.3, Contrast (Minimum) and 2.4.7, Focus
Visible.</p>
<p><label for="standard">Do you feel that WCAG 2.0 Level A plus two
AA Success Criteria (1.4.3 requiring minimal contrast and 2.4.7
requiring visible focus indicators) is an adequate standard? Why
or why not?</label><br>
<textarea name="standard" id="standard" cols="65" rows="5"></textarea></p>
<hr>
<p>We will be capturing how people gained web accessibility
knowledge, experience, and skills. The following questions will be
presented to study participants:</p>
<p>How did you reach your current level of web accessibility
expertise (select all that apply)?</p>
<ul>
<li>Learned web accessibility on my own from a book or other
printed resources.</li>
<li>Learned web accessibility online or through other electronic
resources.</li>
<li>Learned web accessibility on-the-job, perhaps with the help of
colleagues at work.</li>
<li>Went to a training or series of trainings on web
accessibility.</li>
<li>Took an established course (for credit) that included web
accessibility in high school, college, or university.</li>
<li>I have had little or no exposure to web accessibility
principles.</li>
</ul>

<br>
Good morning,<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
I am wondering if I could get some feedback regarding what you
might<br>
have in place at your colleges regarding technology
accessibility<br>
guidelines.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Currently, we have no guidelines or committee that assist with
making<br>
sure our faculty and staff are purchasing (or educated on how
to<br>
use/develop) accessible software or classroom materials
(electronic<br>
files, video, etc).<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated,<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
