First time testing web #accessibility for #Adapt #elearning courses today. Now I can really appreciate the importance and added value of well-written alt text for images, having #ARIA labels etc. I tested with the #FOSS screen reader software #NVDA.

Do you have any thoughts, tips or resources related to accessibility?

I've joined @codeberg and will add my projects soon. I'm also keen to collaborate where I can on others' #FOSS projects, so get in touch if you have any ideas! (At present I'm comfortable with #HTML, #CSS and #Sass, but I only know basic #JavaScript (actively learning).)

My priority project at the moment is still my #elearning #Adapt course, and I recently developed my first custom theme (which you'll find at my #GitLab and #Codeberg).

To prepare for #Adapt #development at work in the coming weeks, today I dove into beginner #elearning courses on #Backbone, #jQuery and #JavaScript templating. I'm frazzled. It's a big step going from #CSS and basic #JS to #MVCs...

Send me your thoughts, tips and all the reassuring things, yes?

And on to the next unit I go for my #elearning course #DigitalPrivacyEssentials. This unit will be covering the 'defenders of digital rights' 🔐 ✊ , such as @privacyint @eff @torproject. #privacy #security #digitalrights #FOSS #Adapt #Moodle

Who wants to feature in the 'Why Privacy Matters' unit I'm working on for my course #DigitalPrivacyEssentials? Just reply to this toot with your 'privacy pitch' - how you would explain to someone that #privacy matters. Any responses used will be anonymised and I will let you know if you're featured. Thanks! #elearning #foss #Moodle #Adapt

I've reached a milestone with my course, #DigitalPrivacyEssentials. The course theme is complete and I'm giving it back to the #Adapt community under a GPLv3 licence: https://gitlab.com/5am/adapt-freelearning #FOSS #GNU #elearning #git #dev #privacy #education

Take a sneak peek at Module 1 of my upcoming course, #DigitalPrivacyEssentials... #privacy #security #anonymity #elearning #Adapt #FOSS

Hello all! I never did get round to doing a proper intro on my previous instance when joining Mastodon, so here goes:

I'm an #elearning #designer based in the UK, passionate about #privacy, #security, #decentralisation and #opentech in general. Writing and editing is my speciality, but I also have a keen eye for design. I'm currently working on an elearning course called Digital Privacy Essentials, which will soon be free for everyone under CC licence (watch this space).
