By Vivian Cullipher  |  April 4, 2018  |    |  2

How to Make Elearning Accessible: Insights from the 2017 CSUN Assistive Technology Conference

By Kevin Gumienny  |  March 20, 2017  |    |  6

A week at the CSUN Assistive Technology conference in San Diego leaves the mind reeling. So much new information! So much of it related to learning! A few presentations made this connection explicit, directly correlating learning and accessibility. What I’d really like to talk about though, is the way that accessibility, the process and principle of making content available to those with disabilities, relates to elearning. Drawing from various presentations,[…]

The Lectora User’s Conference and my First Big Presentation – Part 6: Anatomy of a Presentation, Continued

By Mary Word  |  August 14, 2014  |    |  2

By Mary Word You have seen some of the important elements, such as commenting and naming. Ordering the elements in a page is also important. There are functional reasons to do this, of course. If you have six actions in a group and the third one tells the program to jump to another page, the last three will never be executed. Your interaction depends on a certain sequence of events[…]

The Lectora User’s Conference and my First Big Presentation – Part 5: Anatomy of a Presentation – How Did I Do That, Again?

By Mary Word  |  August 12, 2014  |    |  2

By Mary Word (Relearn what I did—the importance of commenting your own work. Also, big cheers for debug.) If you have ever done programming, or taken a programming course, you have been told to comment your code.
