For your consideration: Web accessibility: - removing barriers that limit the ability of an individual with a disability or a user of alternative computer access methods to use Web content and Web applications or to participate in their development in a manner one chooses, thereby enhancing ones effectiveness, efficiency and the satisfaction experienced. The benefits tend to be more universal facilitating: - the needs of even non-disabled users and developers of websites, and - adherence toorganizational or statutory requirements that might be mandated. === If this is the first slide,it must define Web accessibility in conceptual terms and relegate words like operable, perceivable, navigable, authoring tools etc to later slides that explain the definition. The slides that follow do a splendid job there. Also it may be a good idea not to use words like "accessible" (or usable)that are in fact being defined. There is no trace of duplication of language and phrases within the above definition nor in relation to the slides that follow.... And it is not very longish!
