Guest lecture by Johannes Ismair and Daiana Geetan from MaibornWolff (19.12.2024)

Johannes Ismair and Daiana Geetan from MaibornWolff will give a talk in the elite program’s special lecture series. The title of the talk is “Web Accessibility 101” and it will take place in room 1055N at 4PM on 19th December 2024.

Abstract

Web Accessibility remains a largely overlooked aspect within projects. The journey to understanding it — navigating through ARIA, various user interfaces such as screen readers, and deciphering the official WCAG guidelines — can often feel daunting. However, drawing from my own experience, I’ve discovered that it’s possible to impart 80% of essential Web Accessibility knowledge swiftly and effectively. This talk aims to demystify the process, making Web Accessibility approachable and achievable for everyone.
