Emergence of web technology: An implementation of web accessibility design in organizations

This paper introduces an awareness of web accessibility for an organization´s end user needs. The functionality of the Internet must be implemented to accommodate audiences with disabilities and disseminate the attributes of web technology used to meet the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Restoration Act of 1998 and the 21st Century and Video Accessibility Act passed by President Obama in 2008. An evaluation of the roles of the emerging web technology has been investigated for web accessibility, but this paper will explore further how web technology functions can enhance accessibility for audiences with disabilities. Multiple web technologies are identified to aid audiences with disabilities. Several attributes related to web accessibility are also identified. Finally, this paper presents a framework for how to select the appropriate web technology to aid audiences with disabilities.
