 Universal Design for Learning (UDL)  Funded by U.S. Dept. of Education, Office of Postsecondary Ed.  Winner of 2008 N. Preston Davis Group Award for Instructional Innovation  Partnering with The Institute for Learning and Teaching (TILT), College of Natural Sciences, CVMBS

Universal Design for Learning is a set of principles and techniques for creating inclusive classroom instruction and accessible course materials. teaching technology “ ”

 Accessibility starts with the “native editor”:  Word processor  Spreadsheet  Desktop Publishing software  Accessibility features transfer to other formats:  Adobe PDF  HTML  Daisy Talking Books

 Content  The actual information you are providing in a document. This can include Text, Images, Videos, or Multimedia.  Structure  The organization of content is structure. This includes headings, lists, tables, emphasis, etc.  Presentation  One can add style rules to structural elements to give documents a particular appearance. Appearance

 Create more flexible web pages with multiple presentations views:  Standard  Print  Small device  RSS

 HTML tags define structure  Headings: to  Paragraphs:  Divisions:  Lists:,,, and  Images:  table cells and headers: and  Example in Dreamweaver…

 Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) control the appearance, position and behavior of elements:  h1 { color: red; }  #logo { position: absolute; left: 0px; top: 0px; }  #menu li a:hover { background-color: red; }

 The “alt” attribute of the tag should capture the meaning of an image:  Purely decorative images receive the “null” or “empty” alt attribute. Text-to-speech software will skip such images. Example:

 Use tables for tabular data, not as a framework for page layout.  Keep tables as simple as possible. Avoid nesting one table inside another.  In header row, replace (table data) with (table header) tags.

Lemonade Sales in 2005 May June July Costs $12 $20 $25 Sales $15 $22 $25 Profit $3 $2 $0  Scope attribute of tag  Indicates one logical row and/or column of headers  Caption  The tag serves as a label and is bound to the table data.

 Complex Tables: two or more logical rows and/or columns of headers  Must use ‘id’ and ‘headers’ attribute  Complex tables may require the “summary” attribute

May June July Costs $12 $15 $20 $22 $25 $28 Sales $15 $17 $22 $25 $30 Profit $3 $2 $3 $0 $2

 Group form elements using and tags.  Add labels to form elements using the ‘for’ attribute of the tag. This attribute keeps labels and form elements linked, regardless of where they appear on the page.

Credit Card Selection Visa Master Card American Express

 Make sure forms can be navigated from the keyboard using the Tab key.  Avoid JavaScript behaviors that move the focus (cursor position) without notifying the user.

 Hyperlinks should describe where they will take the user.  Links should make sense when read out of context.  Include destination URL if page is likely to be printed.  Examples: Poor: Click here to visit the Colorado State University home page.Click here Better: Visit the Colorado State University home page ( State University home pagehttp://  Allow users to skip over repetitive navigation links and go straight to the main content.

 Colorblind testing tools for your website Colorblind testing tools  Usability studies Usability studies  effective layouts and fonts  eye tracking studies  effects of line length on reading ability  and more  Validate HTML and CSS code  And much more…
