Henshaws College and Jisc launch an accessible YouTube website | Henshaws Society for B... - 0 views

  • ACCESS: YouTube
  • Billy explains: “When I first started, I didn’t know how to use it, but now I can play videos without help. I have made my own playlists for my favourite videos including Take That and Kylie Minogue. I can use the site out of college sessions. It’s great to have the freedom to do this.”

    This site is too cool!  I have thought about You Tube as being difficult to manipulate, but to someone with certain disabilities, they may not be able to use You Tube at all.  This site has a link to a version of "ACCESS: You Tube."  I typed in deaf, and the first video was all caption.  I only watched one and was so excited about this site that I wanted to go ahead and bookmark it.  I'm going to check it out even more.

    I chose this bookmark because it has many resources for people that are blind. The first page, where the link is set, is about my cousion who is blind, and his success story. I have many memories of him growing up as a child. One link is for products and technology where there is a vast amount of resources from notetakers to talking books that will benefit someone with blindness. There is a great link on blogs that has many user experiences. The very first one was about Dropbox and problems happening with that at the moment. Very interesting blogs.
