Abstract :
Several computer science departments include Internet or Web programming courses for both computer science majors and nonmajors. A large component of these courses is Web page development and design using HTML and other technologies. While the need for increasing the level of accessibility to Web resources by the disabled has become more prominent, the topic is often missing from these relevant courses. This paper presents the need for introducing accessibility topics as well as the technical details and tools that can be used to create more accessible Web sites and software.
