Inclusive Design is currently the domain of people who design physical things, like product designers and architects, but Sandi Wassmer is firm in her belief that Inclusive Design applied in the online environment just makes sense. The principles of Inclusive Design encompass so many of the practices, principles and guide lines that web designers are already using – Accessibility, Usability, User Centric Design, Progressive Enhancement and User Experience – but unlike each of these dis­crete practices, Inclusive Design gives desigers the ability to offer choice, as a single design solu tion will never accommodate all users. Sandi will talk about how the principles of Inclusive Design can be easily adopted by web designers right now. By the end of the session you’ll have the frame work for becoming an inclusion activist!
