Forum .LRN Q&A: Re: Making Online Learning Accessible - Guidelines Released

It's great that you've found these guidelines. We should read them through carefully and try to sift out the good and not so good stuff.

Knowing how sparse/plain the OpenACS UI is in general, I suppose it's a matter of considering adding to the toolkit rather than subtracting from it...which is fortunate for us (thanks, again, to the Greenspun philosophy😉.

The IMS specifications I've read so far have expressively refrained from saying anything about UI issues and about how the different specifications ought to be implemented. When it comes to what the users experience, in terms of usability/accessibility and so on, I find it a good thing they've spit out a policy.
