I am a new programmer and I will do everything in my power to make sure I incorporate all the proper tags and semantic code into my projects and webpages!
@@wimabk9887 Because it helps blind people. Obviously they can’t see images, but they CAN imagine what it is when developers put a descriptive tag. Voiceover can speak out the tag for them.
Thank you for the video! I find that showing people things like alternative text and proper header navigation is so much easier than telling them about it, and there are shockingly few practical videos like this. Much appreciated, Mark!
Thank you Mark! I edit digital marketing assets, and always wondered what the big deal about image alt text was. This was a great explanation on the need for quality clear, descriptive text.
Thanks for the video, it was really useful to see a screen-reader used in context. I'll certainly remember your advice when building web pages in the future
Awesome video Mark! I would love to see more videos on this topic with more examples. Really helps me understand how to make websites accessible for real people.
Thank you, Mark. I just encountered this video while completing some trainings. But after watching this 4 min video, I now understand how much important it is to take these accessibility things into consideration. Thank you again.
That's the reason why I'm trying to push the accessibility and want to improve the search experience overall for all people. Great video, thanks for sharing.
Thank you for sharing this. I'm learning web development and accessibility is something that comes up in study materials, but it was really useful to see a video of you using a screen reader and how bad code can really impact the experience for users.
Thank you! I'm currently studying Instructional Design, it's really helpful to see how screen readers work for the user, so I have a better understanding when creating courses.
Another aspiring web developer here. Thankfully, there are a lot of good resources nowadays that help with learning how to make a web page screen reader friendly, but I appreciate you showing us one in action.
Thank you for turning down the speech rate so us untrained folks can follow along. I passed over several demo videos in which the reviewer kept their normal super-fast settings. I appreciate the great demo.
It is definitely worth trying a few of the screen readers. The most 'normal' usage is all those long corporate documents you are expected to read as part of CBT (computer based training) which can be really boring, but are actually made accessible when the computer will read them out to you. You will quickly appreciate the problems and confusions from poorly formatted documents. I recently had to 'read' 13 updated documents as part of a mandatory volunteer training exercise that took hours. I could have just scrolled and ticked the box (unprofessional), but having a reader quickly, but accurately read them all made the exercise manageable. The MS Edge browser will read pdfs 'out of the box'. Try them.
This is an awesome video which shows me that proper coding is really important thing out of respect for people who have some limitations with sences. Be a respectful person, make a proper coding.
Thank you so much for the explanation. Today I am working with my organization into making our intranet in compliance with the accessibility laws, and this video has helped me to get a glimpse of what a screen reader can do, and how important the development of proper designs are to make inclusion happen.
Thank you for your video. I'm a beginner in Front-end development but I will make sure my codes will be inclusive and won't forget about accessibility.
Currently taking a class in accessibility as a UX Designer/Researcher, I will take you into consideration in my work. Thank you for sharing this with us!
Very interesting video! I think it's really hard to understand or better exhausting what is on the page / maybe I'm just used to see the elements and would be totally desperated if I couldn't. But it's such a great invention. I will be a web developer and I will pay attention to make the website good for Screen Readers :)
Thank you for the explanation. I am self teaching development and it is very useful to actually understand how screen reader work and how code impact accessibility
Marc - This was super helpful to me as a product manager. Could you share examples of best practices of showing image based videos with no human narration on a screen reader? For instance, consider a video flipping through a few inside pages of an illustrated children's book with no speech. Is it enough to say 'you are currently looking at a page inside ?"
Hello, Mark. Thank you for the video. You showed the ways you are able to navigate on a page, element by element (line by line) and jumping headings by headings. I wonder which of these is the most common way.
Hi Mark. Your video is awesome. So much so, in fact, I'd like to use it in an Accessibility course that I'm working on. Would it be OK for me to use parts of this video in my course?
Does anyone have links to a video showing a JAWS user using the application as they normally would? At their comfortable full speed and all? Would be great to hear a walkthrough of a website as a JAWS power user would experience it.
I am a new programmer and I will do everything in my power to make sure I incorporate all the proper tags and semantic code into my projects and webpages!
I am a university student and wondered why we needed to include a descriptive tag in our graphic assignments. Now I know. Thank you for informing me!
Can you explain for me why! Please

Thank you, New to coding and this really helped when it comes down to accessibility. It's way more impactful to see it in action.
Videos like this help website developers know how to design sites for accessibility. Thanks
Thank you. Clear, concise and informative. The presenter, Mark, comes across really well.
Awesome video Mark! I would love to see more videos on this topic with more examples. Really helps me understand how to make websites accessible for real people.
Thank you for making me understand the real importance of accessibility and how much difference it can make for so many people.
Thank you so much for taking the time to explain this to us!

Best video I've watched on this subject so far. Easy to understand and short. Thanks!
Excellent demonstration, thank you! I've shown this to others at my institution.

So amazing to see how properly defined tags help screen readers

Thank you. This is very helpful to me as a sighted teacher trying to understand accessibility.

At the time, were you using the voiceover or NVDA at the time?

This is great for my essay at uni! Thank you for sharing!

Thank you! Newbie in coding here. Good to remember when creating alt tags for images and labels for tables.

Dude, this is awesome. I now understand why its so important to develop accessible websites. Thank you!
Thank you for this videos, it is important to take into account accessibility when coding. Thank you once again
Thank you Mark, I'll make sure I use the proper tags, and alts for every web page I'm building.
Thank you for the explanation.

I am studying Computing accessibility, that is why I end up here, very interesting indeed.
Love this video! I will recommend it to my students!
Thanks very much I will do the right things from now onwards.
Thank you very much for the video! Very useful information!
Thank you for showing what happens when proper tags aren't used.
very useful.. i will show this to my students too
Thanks for the explanation.
Thank you. Easy to follow. ^^

is just amazing!
thank you very much i am Brazilian and i studing in edx web acessibility i will remember about it.
Класс! Мне очень понравилось видео! Круто! Спасибо! Теперь стало гораздо понятнее!
Very helpful video. Can you tell me what screen reader Mr. Sutton was using in this video? Thank you.
thankyou for sharing

Is this JAWS, NVDA, or another screen reader?
What screen reader is used here ?
Im a web dev and worried with ARIA standards , semantics and accessibility as general. By the way it is one of the elements of good UX.
whats the magic trick to headbutt 3 people together? aka CRA
We will work harder
I'm a dev, and I'm finding it hard to get a screen reader so that I can develop the website for it
i don't like money
