Macromedia Accessibility Project (MAP)
Overview Information technology and especially the rapidly-expanding capabilities of the Internet, holds tremendous potential for providing students with access to knowledge and educational opportunities that were not previously possible. Accessibility ensures access to electronic information for all users, including those with disabilities. Accessibility is a crucial issue for community colleges, not only because federal, state, and local policies mandate making electronic information available to all users regardless of disability, but because openness is an integral part of the community college’s mission. With their goal of making education available to all, community colleges have a crucial stake in ensuring that, as educational channels expand to include web-based communication and online course offerings, equal opportunity is not compromised. This paper outlines a three-month project that was conceived as a collaborative effort to promote information regarding accessibility and to integrate this information into the online curriculum of one community college.
