This website was for faculty at the University of Central Florida which discussed the accessibility of text format, and netiquite as far as using all caps locked. Students who have problems with vision may have problems with images and graphics and to differentiate the graphics will be linked for students to choose which type of graphic they want either the text version or video for example. In science courses, illustrations are important and necessary; therefore, only real life photos or realistic diagrams will be used for this class. Overall this website was very informative on the basic design elements of the course that could easily be overlooked when designing for various learning styles and levels.
This website from Purdue University is related to my course because it focuses on Botany. Botany is the study of plants and in my Introduction of Plants course I will incorporate the web accessibility ideas such as keeping images clear and allowing changes for hearing or vision impaired students. I planned on incorporating podcasts and vodcasts for my course and all students would need access. For tactile learners I will incorporate an independent section for hands on learning, which would be explained and instructions linked within the course.
