Hi all

Just a wee reminder-we're really keen to have some collaborative input from group members on this work. 

It's the kind of work that can be broken down into short micro-tasks, so if you have a spare few minutes, please consider helping to build out our record of information gaps, so that we can support W3C in improving their provision for people working in online learning accessibility. 

Mary's email below provides details on what we need to do, but if anything's unclear, please let us know.

Thanks!
Dave

We invite you to add to this list where you know of a W3C resource relevant to online learning that is not listed. Please only add resources on the w3c domain.  Due to the sheer number of techniques related to each WCAG guideline, we did not attempt to list them, but if there is a specific technique you want to add, please do.
