Welcome to Web2Access!
This resource aims to help those making decisions about their use of freely available 'Web 2.0' interactive and collaborate e-learning tools.
Teaching and Learning
Each Web 2.0 site can be searched or browsed by a specific Activity or it's performance in our usability/accessibility checks. If you are involved in teaching and learning and want to supplement or make more use of Web 2.0 services in your e-learning activities, this section may be useful to you.
Our Tests
The ratings provided are subjective, although they are based on the use of manual and automatic checks as discussed on the Test pages. The ability to browse by Disability is also based on the checks they passed.
Further Links and Resources are provided with examples of how some Web 2.0 sites can be used within a website, such as Web2Access.
About the Project
Web2Access is a JISC-funded project, whose purpose is to develop practical, pragmatic and relevant toolkits to support the projects funded within the JISC Users and Innovation Programme in their engagement with next generation and Web 2.0 technologies and emerging legal issues, such as IP, libel and accessibility. You may find Web2Rights a useful resource to explore.
There are a number of ways in which these projects will engage with Web 2.0 and the resources created here will be relevant for projects which are:
- Adapting and deployment of pre-existing tools, technologies and software.
- Developing new tools, technologies and software.
- Adapting and using own content.
- Use of third party created content.
We anticipate that these tools will also be useful for other projects funded by JISC, JISC Programme Managers, organisations represented by the Strategic Content Alliance, the wider Higher and Further education communities, and other organisations engaged with the web.
