Description
Generally accepted software standards indicate that mature software should display several qualities; specifically, software should deliver expected functionality, execute efficiently, be secure, and be accessible. However, despite government legislation regarding software accessibility, accessibility continues to not be prioritized for a large amount of software applications currently being developed. To fill the void in accessibility education, we have created a comprehensive collection of labs to benefit accessibility education. These labs are collectively referred to as the Accessible Learning Labs (ALL), and have the primary objectives of educating participants on how to properly create accessible software, as well as illustrating the need to create accessible software. Our interactive labs afford practitioners, instructors, and students the ability to engage with the material using only a browser. This artifact will benefit many software engineering community members, ranging from beginning-level students to experienced practitioners who want to ensure that they are properly creating inclusive and accessible software. Complete project material is publicly available on the project website: https://all.rit.edu
