Accessible Media and Design
Designing and deploying accessible content starts with thinking through the CONTEXT and EXPERIENCE your user might have. We've grouped all media and design content using the (Perceivable, Operable, Understandable, Robust), hoping this helps you retain principles that can be applied to any content creation. We've also created an Accessible MEDIA AND DESIGN Checklist containing all you need to consider from the P.O.U.R. guidelines.
Accessibility is about CONTEXT: Where and how is the user interacting with your content? Will your content adapt well on any device or with any assistive tech? Have you enabled all source accessibility features before publishing?
Accessibility is also about EXPERIENCE: Have you presented your content cleanly and clearly? Can many types of users understand and act upon your content? Can the user operate your content easily and in the way they choose?
