Please join us to continue our ongoing discussion, exploration, and discovery of IA & Standards Program: Welcome and General IACG meeting Information Architecture Community Group (IACG) Today we continue our exploration of IA, Accessibility (a11y), and Standards The W3C Information Architecture Community Group (IACG) welcomes anyone interested in information architecture (IA), accessibility (a11y), labeling systems, taxonomies, and standards. IACG members participate, discuss, share, support, develop, and learn these topics. Date: Saturday 28 September 2024, 12:00–3:30 pm Eastern Saturday 28 September 2024, 11:00 am – 2:30 pm Central Saturday 28 September 2024, 9am - 11:30 am Pacific Location: Virtual Zoom Meeting NY USA Groups: Information Architecture Community Group (IACG) Agenda 12 -1 pm EST Keynote: Designing Technology for an Aging Population Dr. Jeff Johnson If a website or app’s target audience includes older adults, certain aspects of its design become more important. This talk describes age- related factors that affect ability to use websites and apps, and presents design guidelines that reflect the capabilities, usage patterns, and preferences of older users. Features: • Demographics of users of digital technology, by age, • Age-related factors affecting ability to use computers and online services, • Common design problems that decrease usability for older adults, • Design guidelines that can help designers avoid these common pitfalls. Intended audience: IAs, Designers, and developers of all levels. Also: Q/A engineers, usability testers, and managers. Break 1:15 - 2:15 pm EST Continuing Education for Information Architects (IAs) Dr. Rupananda Misra, Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey How to teach UX professionals, stakeholders, and evolving information architects to improve the user experience—making complex information understandable and accessible. Learn about practical IA experience and standards in real-world situations. Intended audience: Information architects of all levels. Also: Usability and UX professionals of all levels. Break 2:30 - 3:30 pm EST Information Architecture, Accessibility, and Web Standards Noreen Whysel, City University of New York (CUNY) According to the Information Architecture Gateway (IAG), Information architecture (IA) is organizing and labeling content to support findability, accessibility, and usability. Accessibility has emerged as one of the core components of a good IA, as well as essential methods, standards, and strategies. 3:30 - 4:00 pm EST Concluding Discussions Speakers Jeff Johnson Jeff Johnson, Ph.D. is an Adjunct Professor of Computer Science at USF-CA.
