Here from Google's UX Design course 2. Hi! It's encouraging to see that this information (video content) is out there for all people to access to assist with accessibility in design: simply good design, right? Very real examples that center everything on the user and asking the user questions to influence research. I love that the user focus is always front and center. The fact that assistive tech (AT) videos are widely available is also incredible--how will we know how to create assessible designs if we don't know how users use AT's in their daily life. Also appreciated the Crane example walk through.

[@user-qq8rm6jw7b]

It's inspiring to have access to Google's UX Design course, which emphasizes the importance of user-centric design and accessibility. The course provides practical examples that showcase how user research can inform design decisions, and highlights the significance of assistive technology (AT) in ensuring inclusivity. The Crane example walkthrough was particularly insightful. It's fantastic that AT videos are easily accessible as they offer valuable insights into how users with disabilities interact with digital products. Ultimately, the course reinforces the notion that good design is synonymous with inclusive design.

As in my country, blind people are excluded so when I first saw a blind woman using iPhone on UA-cam I was so amazed. Seeing this kind of videos makes my assumption more wrong and makes me love people who are making the world better for people with disabilities.

Here from Google's UX Design course 2! Great video and great additional material !

[@jenniferbagwell9189]

Great video! Very nice addition to the UX course. We need to include everyone in our thought process when designing. You never know who might be using a product.

[@Favourgoody]

Google UX design course brought me here.
This is awesome

[@olanrewajuomotosho9463]

Course two and week two of Google UX Design Student. Really enjoying this

[@mercyoghenechohwo1979]

I am here from Google UX design course. Amazing Presentation!!

[@raymondmaboya592]

One of the best presentations ever... you can tell that the speakers are so vested in their craft, they are so excited to share the knowledge.

[@reybreneaux5331]

Next time, it would be great to actually see the slides! Other than that, lovely

[@mrlessy]

agreed!

[@osamatammam8894]

This video is full of very practical and useful information for me as a beginner ux/ui designer, I found it very helpful, thanks google, and thank you ladies for being so friendly, professional, informative and exciting.

[@MichaelPrentice]

Excellent talk and content!
Unfortunately the slides are not shown in full screen resolution, instead they are only visible from really far away camera shots. Often the talk references some specific color or contrast differences, but these are not easily visible on the video of the slides 🤕
I would much rather see the slides well rather than shots of the audience.

[@debobratadebnath]

Yes, agree with you. A wonderful session getting frustrating when the reference screens are not showing at the same time, :(

[@chintangandhi1]

Yup, defeats the purpose of Accessibility Design.

[@doremon313]

they are demonstrating how not to do accessibility

[@mattalves2439]

So informative! This was such a good talk, Catherine was great

[@mfwalls9911]

100% love this. Great, understandable explanation of how businesses can take some first steps toward increased accessibility and inclusion in their products - and how they can be more intentional about who they are designing to include. #combatdesignexclusion

[@manivannan39]

Got more understanding of accessibility in UX design and the video was very good , So infromative

[@theLaurawind]

Bethany is such a great speaker, awesome presentation ladies!

[@abirahmed1292]

I am glad this video at least have no ad

[@TheMrBrendo]

great content. great speakers, and important material. can you please show the slides and lis the tools/apps used in the description?

[@boy555dhk]

Nice speeches! I hoped the cameraman had a better idea about the topic to focus on the person and screen when needed (accessibility;-)).

[@wesleybruce7495]

it's make sense!! Thanks for sharing with us!!!

[@jennyelliot5113]

Am here from Google UX design course.
All I can just say is wow!!!

[@johnnysutherland5717]

Excellent presentation - enlightening.

[@meowzers4380]

This was fun to watch thank you

[@haleywang8941]

Great content but it would be nice to zoom in to the presentation because it is barely visible as the speakers are talking.

[@halsariph]

Yeah and sometimes they just only show the speaker while they are saying something about and pointing to something on screen. Yeah, I would love to see what they are showing us…

[@katalinvarga6207]

I loved it, thank you :)

[@bazilasang9478]

here from Google's UX Design certificate, reallly insightful content

[@vincentlee0509]

This video is really informative, but when refer to the UI of the slides it is just too small to look clearly.

[@abhishekmishra-uxer]

well explained !!

[@K.A_1997]

Clearly understand about users need how it can assist with the technology

[@LBOSOGA]

Sooooooo informative

[@spikatrix1486]

The irony of this video is that the slideshow isn't visible.

[@qbalsdon]

It would be great if the editors of this content let US see the slides...
