overview
This course presents techniques to tackle the
myriad of usability issues facing the Web designer
and Web application developer. These issues
include accessibility for users with disabilities;
serving
a global audience; as well as understanding the
use cases of the visitors to your application
or site. The course also covers ideas taken
from many years of research into Human Computer
Interaction (HCI) and User Interface (UI) design.
TriReme's Ian Graham is founder of the WU
(Web Usability) patterns movement.
The course is suitable for Web designers and
