Agenda:

agenda+ Move module "Understanding and Involving Users" to "Foundation Modules"
https://deploy-preview-349--wai-curricula.netlify.app/curricula/foundation-modules/understanding-and-involving-users/

EOWG has proposed to move current designer module "Understanding and Involving Users" to "Foundation Modules". Rationale:

- Its content touches on several roles: user researcher, designer, developer, content author, and project manager.
- Some organizations may skip these contents entirely if they are placed in the designer modules, as designer and user researcher
may be completely separate roles for them.

See EOWG minutes at https://www.w3.org/2021/06/11-eo-minutes.html#t01

agenda+ Learning outcomes for topic "Alternatives to Multimedia Content"

ltimedia-content

I have taken a pass to make them clearer and more understandable. Also, I have added references to multimedia player controls to
have descriptive names, to be easy to find, and not to disappear when the media starts to play.

Do you agree with the changes? Anything else we should add here?

agenda+ Improving teaching ideas for topic "Textual Information"
https://deploy-preview-347--wai-curricula.netlify.com/curricula/designer-modules/information-design#topic-textual-information

These teaching ideas seem more oriented to authors. Any ideas on how we could make them more design-oriented?

Best.
