Access for All: NSDL Accessibility Portal

The WGBH National Center for Accessible Media (NCAM) and WGBH Interactive are building a portal to provide personalized accessibility information for NSDL. The portal will launch with metadata from project partners Teachers’ Domain, The Science and Math Informal Learning Educators Pathway (SMILE), and the Middle School Portal 2: Math & Science Pathways (MSP2). All NSDL collections are welcome to join in.

The project will use the NSDL Collection System to store Access For All metadata in the NSDL Data Repository. We will build a portal with the Digital Discovery System tools to provide a customized user interface offering user profiles that make it easier to find accessible resources for students or teachers with disabilities. The poster session (and our computer lab session on Wednesday) offer a chance to meet project staff and find out how you can get involved.
