Invisible differences – such as sensory, learning, and cognitive – are part of a spectrum of experiences for which there’s no singular solution for accommodation. So how can user experience research practices aim for accessibility for all?
Join us to discuss important strategies for conducting user research with people who have a spectrum of invisible differences. There are no one-size-fits-all accommodations, but experts Meryl Evans and Nikki Nolan share their best practices for both living with their own invisible disabilities and working with this important population. Curiosity Tank founder and UX researcher and educator Michele Ronsen lead the discussion.
Topics we’ll cover:
How accessibility accommodations benefit more than the targeted audience
Differences within invisible differences (and the accommodations they need)
Involving people with invisible disabilities throughout the development process
Inclusive writing for people with cognitive differences
Working with and leveraging internal Employee Resource Groups (ERGs)
Self Identification within the disabled community and key terms
This morning's event proceeds benefit Knowbility whose mission is to ensure equal access to technology for people with disabilities.
All registrants will receive a recording of the event and a copy of the presentation deck from Curiosity Tank. NOTE: A recording of the event and related materials will be sent to registrants from Curiosity Tank. Recordings will be sent to those who register both before and after the live sessions take place. Registrants do not need to attend the events live. Those who do join live will have the opportunity to ask questions and interact in real-time.
