IDwerkzInfo YouTube Channel

I am happy to announce the creation of a YouTube channel for hosting accessibility related videos. I will be adding tutorials, reviews, rants, and other information about accessibility and digital media.

The YouTube channel is named “IDwerkz Info”. Please check it out and let me know what video content you would like to see.

The first video added was a proof of functionality, just a simple introductory clip of ten seconds, titles “Hello World”.

The next video is the first of an ongoing series of videos about accessibility, each video being about 60 seconds long. The content will be aimed at online teachers, but will be useful for anyone creating digital content.

QWERTY keyboard with the words Keyboard Accessibility overlaid on top.The first in the “60 Seconds of Accessibility” series is a video about the essential keys for navigating through content with a keyboard: “Navigating with a Keyboard – in 60 seconds”.

 

Remember to show your support by liking the videos, and subscribe to the channel so you won’t miss anything.

Thank you!!!

Hello World!

Hello World, my name is Jayme Johnson, and I’m what you’d call an “Accessibility Specialist”…

Jayme Johnson
Jayme Johnson, Accessibility Specialist (pre-OEI)

I’ve been working in the California Community College system to support the needs of students with disabilities since 2001. I’ve been asked many times to share my thoughts and knowledge about accessibility, and some of my stories about working with faculty in higher education to create and deliver accessible learning experiences.

So here it is, the humble beginnings of a serious blog on accessibility in instructional technology and design. Thanks for checking it out, and if you have any questions or comments, please register and let me know what’s on your mind.
