Hi Folks To kick off tomorrow's discussion I thought I would throw out some ideas to replace the phrase cognitive and learning disabilities and mental health impairments. 1. Making content usable for cognitive accessibility 2. Making content usable for people with cognitive and (specific) learning challenges and disabilities I think this may include mental health, intellectual disabilities, specific learning disabilities, TMI etc. Quick reminder: The challenge is to: 1. Include all our groups of users including: cognitive disabilities, learning disabilities (LD), neurodiversity <https://www.w3.org/TR/coga-usable/#dfn-neurodiversity>, intellectual disabilities, mental health related disabilities, age related cognitive disabilities. TMI and specific learning disabilities (I am sure there are more, but you get the idea...) 2. mean the same thing in different locations, including the EU, UK, and USA, and 3. use the terms needed to promote due accommodation under the law. So disability is a good word to include. Your thoughts? -- All the best Lisa Seeman-Horwitz LinkedIn <http://il.linkedin.com/in/lisaseeman/>, Twitter <https://twitter.com/SeemanLisa>
