Projects

Project 1

Practical Handbook for Accessibility Audits

This two-day interactive workshop focuses on developing an Accessibility Audit Handbook that any university can use to assess the accessibility of its programme pages. Participants will engage in hands-on activities, group discussions, and empathy exercises to define key audit criteria and build the first version of the guide.

On Day 1, attendees will explore accessibility principles, experience real-world barriers, and determine essential audit categories, from text readability to navigation and multimedia accessibility. Day 2 shifts to building the handbook, selecting the best tools, refining its structure, and collaborating on content, design, and project management. By the end of the workshop, participants will have a practical, user-friendly guide to support accessibility improvements in academic web content.

Project 2

Science and Tech Guide for Young Students

This project aims to make science and technology engaging and accessible for younger students through an interactive tutorial in the form of a video-based or web-based guide. By identifying socially impactful scientific topics and presenting them in an engaging way—through animations, quizzes, and interactive elements—the project fosters curiosity and understanding.

Developed with input from engineering students, the tutorial will use clear, engaging language and multimedia content such as videos and infographics to make complex concepts approachable. The final prototype will be tested with students to ensure its effectiveness in sparking interest in science and technology.

Project 3

Cultural Integration Guide

With a focus on inclusivity, this project seeks to design an interactive, culturally sensitive guide that helps international students adapt to their new environment while fostering understanding between local and international communities. The guide will incorporate visually engaging elements, maps, and essential cultural information to provide a comprehensive view of local traditions, etiquette, and points of interest such as museums, bookstores, and local artisans.

Using color coding and an icon system, it will present cultural pathways in an accessible and engaging format.Developed as a website or app, the prototype will feature multilingual support and text-to-speech functionality to ensure accessibility for a diverse audience. Through research, multimedia content creation, and testing, the project aims to create a practical, user-friendly tool that offers international students a seamless introduction to their new cultural environment.

Project 4

Accessibility Needs Research Guide

This project focuses on developing a practical guide for improving web accessibility in academic settings by understanding the needs of users with disabilities or special needs. Through structured research, the project will assess usability expectations, evaluate website effectiveness, and explore strategies to enhance accessibility in key areas like navigation, alternative text, and form completion. A team of technical writers, digital marketing experts, and localizers will collaborate to create an engaging, multilingual guide, supported by interactive multimedia.

The guide will undergo user testing with diverse student groups to refine its usability and effectiveness before finalization. The deliverables will include a comprehensive PDF guide and accompanying instructional videos, ensuring accessibility best practices are clearly communicated and widely applicable.
