On December 3rd, approximately 100 volunteers joined us for our annual International Day of Persons with Disabilities build event in Fredericton hosted in partnership with the New Brunswick’s Premier’s Council on Disabilities.
Today we are going to look at tool that is designed to make reading on the web much easier for persons with disabilities, students, and essentially anyone else who reads content online. Helperbird is an accessible reading and writing toolbar that functions as an extension to virtually any browser.
Today we going to look at something a bit different. Rather than our usual app review, we are going to look at a piece of hardware which has a ton of potential to be used as AT, even though it wasn’t originally designed as such.
On this episode, the AT Help Desk team are joined by accessibility expert Dawn Campbell, who works as a business development manager for Accessibil-IT. We’re going to get into web and digital document accessibility, exploring what document accessibility is, its history, why document accessibility is important, and where you can get help.
Grant Hardy and Accessible Media Inc. were onsite during our Holiday Hackathon to film interviews for their show, The Pulse.
