Good Afternoon Colleagues,
It came up at Principals’ meeting last week that you would like to have more information about web content standards and rules. Here are some resources regarding the questions you asked. This gives a framework for what is appropriate, as well as what ‘appropriate’ looks like.
1) By law, all school and teacher webpages are required to meet certain requirements: http://www.w3.org/standards/webdesign/accessibility
2) This is a resource that helps sites identify if their website meets baseline standards: http://wave.webaim.org
3) Lastly, I have attached a really nice “Tips” sheet for website content development.
I hope this is a good start. Let me know what additional questions spring up so we can help make sure you have what you need to be successful.
Jamie
