Re: AccessLearn update on requirements analysis document

Hi Weiqin, all

Thanks for the really useful feedback. You’re right that while this has been a focus of the group since we established it, we don’t yet have a nice simple definition of what we mean by online learning resources. I agree that this should be straightforward enough to include in the portal page.

Perhaps I can start with a proposal: "Any web resource whose primary function is to support educational activity."

I’m sure that can be improved upon—so group members, feel free to suggest improvements or alternatives!

I also agree that the organization of the portal page will be important so that people can access the information they need. In addition, we're aware that in the future there could be similar portal pages for other stakeholders and topics (for example web accessibility for online publishers, or web accessibility for games development), and some of these portal pages may share or point to similar content. So defining the relationship between portal pages as well as the structure and organization of content within a portal page is going to be a critical part of the authoring process, and something we’ll want to discuss further.

So organizing the content based on the stakeholders/group of stakeholders could be an option. Perhaps this is a discussion for a later stage.

After sharing our recommendations with the Education and Outreach Working Group (EOWG), we were asked to produce a Requirements Analysis for them to review as part of their process of considering new content for the WAI site.  Therefore, we translated the group's recommendations from the Google Sheet into a draft Requirements Analysis document which now exists on GitHub in what we hope is a more readable format than the spreadsheet.

A reminder: the requirements analysis focuses on the recommendations we previously agreed as a group—any suggestions for new content that are not present in the spreadsheet would have to be considered as a separate activity.

If and when EOWG approves the requirements, we will be working with them to produce the content outlined in our proposal, and we hope that AccessLearn members will contribute to that effort.
