Requirements: .PDF reader, 10 MB
Overview: Accessibility is a core quality of digital products to be deliberately addressed throughout the development lifecycle. What Every Engineer Should Know About Digital Accessibility will prepare readers to integrate digital accessibility into their engineering practices. Readers will learn how to accurately frame accessibility as an engineering challenge so they are able to address the correct problems in the correct way. Illustrated with diverse perspectives from accessibility practitioners and advocates, this book describes how people with disabilities use technology, the nature of accessibility barriers in the digital world, and the role of engineers in breaking down those barriers. Accessibility competence for current, emerging, and future technologies is addressed through a combination of guiding principles, core attributes and requirements, and accessibility‑informed engineering practices. This book spans a range of topics related to computer science, including software engineering, human–computer interaction, web and mobile application development, and product and project management. This is intentional. Accessibility considerations apply regardless of the role you might perform in a digital product development. Everyone has an opportunity to make informed decisions that help ensure that accessibility is a priority.
