YouTube Access (Accessible Technology Coalition)
Tuesday, 14 August 2012 1:00pm
Did you know that YouTube is the second most-used search engine, after Google? We'll cover the following features that improve access:
- Enlargement
- Simplified interface
- Interactive transcripts
- Captions, both on YouTube and from other sources
- Using YouTube with a screen reader
- Narration
- Specialized content for deaf users
We'll approach this from the point of view of a user who is low vision, blind, hearing impaired, or deaf. Then we'll consider what one can do as a content publisher on YouTube to increase access.
