Dear All

We are running two free MOOCs on inclusion and digital accessibility this Autumn and I wonder if you could possibly pass round the information as they have been updated to include the latest standards and guidelines. All the original materials are available as Open Education Recourses on the MOOCAP website https://moocap.gpii.eu/?page_id=839

FutureLearn Inclusive Learning and Teaching Environments Sept 3rd for three weeks - for those working in Higher Education and interested in making elearning accessible
"Explore the barriers experienced by disabled students and learn how to overcome these barriers through inclusive practices."

FutureLearn Digital Accessibility Oct 8th for five weeks with 8 universities discussing different aspects of digital technologies and accessibility from the developer and user's point of view with case studies, new technologies and the latest news about legal standards and guidelines for web, mobile, documents, IoT etc. When there is "a better understanding of users' needs, technologies can be developed to be accessible & provide a more inclusive environment"
