Agenda – Welcome and Announcements

Guest Speaker: Hiram Kuykendall – Chief Technology Officer for MicroAssist
Mr. Kuykendall has over 15 years of experience working with application development and training. Most recently, he has devoted himself to making both application development and training more accessible.

Topic: E-Learning – Technology-based Instructional Design

After years of struggling for recognition, the age of E-Learning is finally here! But with the proliferation of these technology-based instructional design tools comes the responsibility to provide the learner with equal access to the content and techniques that promote the learning process. Toward that end, we would like to invite you to come and hear Hiram Kuykendall from MicroAssist review five of the most common E-Learning accessibility issues.

What can you expect?

  • Review of five of the most common issues found in E-Learning.
  • Strategies and standards for handling each situation.
  • Strategies for testing common technology issues

Future Meeting Dates:

  • November 11, 2009
  • December 9, 2009
