Can someone provide a roughly comprehensive list of cognitive disability types and what problems those people might have in accessing information? For example: DISABILITY ACCESS PROBLEM Dyslexia May not be able to read words quickly and may not be able to enter text (such as in search boxes) without misspellings etc. Note that I'm not a dyslexia expert so the above entry is probably WRONG, it's an example of the type of information I'd like to see listed. (The next step in the chart above, of course, would be a third column that describes how we can best address those access problems and solve them!) How many types of users are we grouping together when we glibly use the term "CD"? That's what I need to know... --Kynn -- Kynn Bartlett <kynn@idyllmtn.com> http://www.kynn.com/ Director of Accessibility, edapta http://www.edapta.com/ Chief Technologist, Idyll Mountain Internet http://www.idyllmtn.com/ AWARE Center Director http://www.awarecenter.org/ Next of Kynn: a quasi-regular web log http://www.kynn.com/next/
