February 29,2008 CALSTATELANEWS Begins eLearning For The World Wide Web.
My name is Javier Velez. I am an engineering student at California State University Los Angeles. I am currently a student and I believe the lack of online information about engineering and other fields of study is alarmingly minimal. Of course there is thousands of websites that cover the subjects of political science, engineering and other fields. But most of them assume that we are experts in the subject. And those who are actually friendly has little support and work. At this stage this Website is geared towards the absolute beginner. My goal is to build a community within CSULA that improves the learning process of engineering students and other departments. I am inviting anybody that sees this webpage to submit your research papers, homework's assignment solutions, essays, previous old test or anything that you think might be useful to others while attending school. That is all you need to do. I will take care of the rest. The information will be published in this website if it meets certain standards of quality. Click here to submit your research!
February 21,2008 Accessibility Guidelines Section 508: Curse or Blessing.
Accessible Web pages--which are now mandated across all CSU campuses via the Accessible Technology Initiative (ATI)--have made their way to the Cal State L.A. information technology community. The new guidelines for creating equal opportunity and equal access to all Web pages are effecting faculty and staff members who wish to create their own campus-hosted Web pages. These guidelines, which are outlined in U.S. electronic technology law under Section 508, make it possible for disabled students to access and navigate Web pages just as easily as students without disabilities. While these new standards are a step forward towards improving the climate of accessibility throughout the university's web community, they are difficult to comply with. Faculty members and staff who are not expert web designers or who are just beginning to learn web development are especially effected by the ATI Guidelines. Furthermore, the newly established accessibility standards effect all other forms of campus-utilized communication, including photo, video, and audio media, and even the software that is used to display essays and other text formats.
