# The Equalitines' Group Resource

## About

This Website is the resource of Group 19 for INFO2009, focussing on the topic of equality. This topic contains the sub categories of accessibility, ethics, and discrimination and inclusivity. Each topic is discussed at a greater length on their respective pages.

We decided to create a Website as many of the guidelines that are covered in this area relate strongly to Web accessibility, meaning that we could put our research theories into practice. We have taken examples of good accessibility for Web design from Jakob Nielsen, as well as from the various journals that were read for our previous annotated bibliography task.

This Website has been tested on a range of accessibility validators to ensure that it meets the current sufficient standards. It has also been tested by a screen reader to make sure that text, links and pictures can be read with extra audio help on each page for those who do not own a screen reader. Due to the variety of assistive technologies available, we have found that it is more up to interpretation whether a Website is truly accessible to everyone who could use it.

A page on this Website is also dedicated to explaining our opinion on equality after studying the subject in greater detail. The links on the left-hand column of each page are references we used to help us understand how ignoring the subject of equality can be detrimental but adhering to it early-on can increase the efficiency, usability and productivity of a variety of organisations and businesses.
