Web2.0+be+accessible+or+not+Web2.0+be+accessible?+That+is+the+question.

When a student tells their teacher that they don’t understand something, because it is inaccessible to them, their teacher does not tell them to deal with it. In the case of the internet, especially Web 2.0 websites and programs, this should not be acceptable either. If the point of the website is to teach the user something, than that is what it should do. Teachers are taught to make all of their their content accessible to all of their students (whether they be special education, English language learners, gifted and talented, etc.) early on during the course of their training. This not only helps all students access the material, but is also equitable to everyone. Website designers should be taught this lesson as well. [|Web 2.0 - Web Accessibility - ACCESS], created by San Francisco State University (2009), offers several solutions to common accessibility problems of many webpages, including Web 2.0 applications. Their website is an invaluable resource about accessibility for webpage builders to consider people with various disabilities while they are online, especially Web 2.0 technologies. Also, their site has a list of several accessibility resources for numerous Web 2.0 technologies. I found this site to be quite useful and quickly added it to my favorites as well as my Delicious account.

I also think that it is important to teach our students as well as ourselves the in's and out's of web accessibility. As I went through multiple articles for this assignment, there is physical harm that can be done to students with disabilities if people don't follow simple rules when creating their ads and websites. I will also save this article for future use. Thanks for the information.
