Pretty much all you need to know about Digital Inclusion via accessible content in a nutshell. Includes advice for a wide spectrum of disabilities. It should be just enough to guide people towards finding out more. Nice.
g00mba thanks! That's really kind :-) We hope you're right... In case you hadn't noticed, a next step on to finding out more is at our website: www.citizensonline.org.uk/accessibilitytips/. We've provided lots of links to other organisations and resources we think will help people explore the topic
+Jes Pulido somehow missed this comment at the time Jes - we'd love it it that happened! Anything you can do to help us share it would be great - we're nearing our target for 10,000 views in the year and we're still a few months from May!
Vincent O'Malley Thanks Vincent - we're really pleased with all the positive feedback. Don't miss the accompanying page of tips: www.citizensonline.org.uk/accessibilitytips/
Hey, apologies for the delay - transcripts have always been available for this video on the accompanying webpage: www.citizensonline.org.uk/accessibilitytips/. There is a full transcript including visual descriptions at: www.citizensonline.org.uk/full-transcript-a11y-video/, and a text-only transcript at: www.citizensonline.org.uk/speech-only-transcript-a11y-video/. There is also an expanded transcript with references on the main page. Hope that helps and apologies again for the slow reply
Hi, there is a transcript on our website, as mentioned in the description: www.citizensonline.org.uk/accessibilitytips (I'm afraid that our website is briefly down at the moment, but the transcript will be up as soon as the whole website is - before the end of the month)
+Nate Scarritt That figure comes from research for Microsoft (word document available for download) conducted by Forrester Research - the citation and other references and links are available on our accompanying page: www.citizensonline.org.uk/accessibilitytips/.
Nate Scarritt yes, in the UK he estimate for disabled people is about 15% of the population - the larger number is essentially about milder impairments - visual, dexterity, or hearing - often associated with aging.
+Nate Scarritt W3C's Web Accessibility Initiative has recently produced a set of videos that explain how accessibility improvements help a wider audience than disabled people as well - worth watching! ruclips.net/video/iWO5N3n1DXU/видео.html
The visual content is structured around the script, and there is a transcript with description of the visual content available on the Citizens Online website: www.citizensonline.org.uk/full-transcript-a11y-video/
Hi Denny - apologies for the delay responding. Yes, captions should be on by default, and there is a transcript - both a full transcript with visual descriptions, and a transcript of the speech alone. The audio is the core content Transcripts are available at the following link www.citizensonline.org.uk/accessibility-tips/
Apologies - we believed we used advice about the decibel difference between background music and voice - but will look into uploading a version without music to solve this problem.
Great video!! Thank you again! Here the French transcription: blog.atalan.fr/video-faire-fonctionner-la-technologie-pour-tous-une-introduction-a-laccessibilite-numerique/

Digital technology needs to be open to everybody. It is not something to be applied in the future but today.
This should be required viewing for every Web developer and graphic designer.

This is a really useful resource for anyone wanting to understand the fundamental elements of digital accessibility and why it's SO important.
+James Coltham thanks James - really appreciate the feedback!
Beautiful! It introduces all the important points in a brief but very clear way.
Thanks!
Well done! We love it. Very helpful and informative. Sharing now!
corada Thank you!
Apart from all the egregious popping noises which are very annoying for some people who are neurodiverse, this is very helpful.
This is hugely valuable, thank you for posting.

60%, where did you get this number? Most numbers I see are closer to 20% ...

+Fix the Web thank you! I've seen a few videos saying that's the rate of people who claim being disabled, at least in the States

The visual content is structured around the script, and there is a transcript with description of the visual content available on the Citizens Online website: www.citizensonline.org.uk/full-transcript-a11y-video/
It's fantastic - thank you!

Is THIS video captioned? Does it have descriptive audio?

and RELATIONSHIPS - part of life in the digital age also - via that list of other opportunities - thanks for video from CCACaptioning.org
Fix the web make technology work for everyone
The guitar music is too loud to hear the voice. It is the auditory equivalent of text on a busy background.
Apologies - we believed we used advice about the decibel difference between background music and voice - but will look into uploading a version without music to solve this problem.
to support this guy I think everyone should subscribe to this channel so he can make more things like this
Great!!
