Brainstorms
Brainstorms on slogans
Links below go to rough sketches, which are described in the linked text.
- Are you Accessible? Are you WAI Accessible? www.w3c.org/WAI/intro - depending on how you read it. Could also do "I am Accessible!" (nod to Knowbility for the idea!)
- Shaped like a bumper sticker:
- [ Web Developers do it with WCAG 2 ]
- [ Web Developers do it according to guidelines ]
- [ Web Developers do it according to standards ]
- "I'm perceivable, operable, understandable and robust" + an explanation - would be good on a t-shirt front & back
- Levels:
- Wanna get to level 2? Talk to me...
- I've only got to level 2. But I'd love to go to level 3 with you!
- I'd love to get to level 3 with you!
- WAI in sign language
- tag cloud - of WCAG 2.0, of essential components, or other
- Crossword 2&3: WCAG, WAI-ARIA, ATAG, UAAG, intersecting WEB ACCESSIBILITY,
Crossword 1: WCAG, WAI-ARIA, ATAG, UAAG, intersecting - Bottle labeled "WCAG 2.0" & "100% W3C WAI" pouring out: Perceivable, Operable, Understandable, Robust
Brainstorms on materials
Understanding that there are multiple items needed for multiple audiences, EOWG members have suggested the following several options for consideration in the development of the next generation of outreach materials:
- Flyer(s)
- WCAG 2.0 Quick Tips
- Laptop stickers
- Lapel or lanyard buttons
- T-shirts
- CD handouts
- 1G thumb drive... with WAI Docs
- Bookmarks
- Posters
- Screen saver or background
- flip cards
- USB mug warmers, foamy dice, cell-phone bags, candy cans, flashlights...
- Sport water-bottle - good for "POUR"
Notes and Requirements
- Translations
- Alternate formats - all will be available in HTML
Open Issues:
- Questions of costs - what WAI can provide vs. what we might make available for others to pay for...
