While it is possible to create accessible presentations, it's not always easy. Microsoft PowerPoint, Apple Keynote, and other presentation software have continually added more sophisticated features for presenters over the years, but have ultimately fallen short when it comes to providing content that is easy to consume, access, and share. Furthermore, in today's world of smartphones, tablets, and live-tweeting, the need for more interactive and accessible presentations is greater than ever. Learn how to create accessible online presentations using a responsive WordPress and jQuery Mobile powered platform built specifically for delivering accessible online presentations in this informative session. As with so many other areas of accessibility, we discovered benefits for everyone, not just those with disabilities. For example, making the content so easily shared and immediately viewable enhances the presentation for all, creating a system where it's much easier to share content directly from the source. This not only benefits the audience, but also the presenter, who would like for the presentation to receive as much participation and feedback as possible, and would also like the content to reach out to the audience members' networks and perhaps even beyond.
