Adam Strantz: Accessible + Inclusive Design for Technical Communication, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Emphasizing accessibility as a foundational aspect of good design, this textbook shows students how to design for specific user needs and contexts that are applicable across a variety of potential fields, jobs, and industries.

The accessible + inclusive design framework presented in the book encourages community-based research and learning for finding out what people really need from designs. Through visual examples, hands-on instruction, and design activities, this book outlines best practices for creating accessible designs that are human-centered and tested for all users regardless of need or ability. After providing a general introduction to the language and concepts needed to incorporate accessibility, readers are shown how to research, test, revise and implement designs. With activities and assignments that explore key genres such as print documents, websites, and data visualizations, the text facilitates learning from users and designing with their needs in mind.

This textbook is tailored to undergraduate courses in Technical and Professional Communication, Visual Rhetoric, User Experience and Design.
