The @turingway is an online community that produces a digital book full of resources about reproducible, open, and ethical science. Last fall, I participated in a collaborative week-long BookDash. @ludovia and I had a chance to give a talk about accessibility in the Turing Way community and book. 1/3

It’s always a good practice to make your slides available separately because they aren’t accessible in video or screen share for screen reader users. 2/3

I love this description from Andrea:
“Accessibility as a set of community-wide, behavioral, social, technical decisions
we take to ensure people with disabilities are welcome and are
able to participate in a community or event.”
Of course, we can extend this welcome to anyone from a historically excluded background. 3/3
