Update history

April 2011 — Launch of toolkit second edition. The graphic design of the entire website was completely overhauled, and vertical scrolling now replaces the previous 'next-page' based navigation. A new How to get started section replaced the previous "Inclusive design process" and "Knowledge" sections. The "Interactive resources" section was renamed to Inclusive design tools, and a new Integrated design log and Business case materials were added. If you would like to access the previous version of the inclusive design toolkit, please contact edc-toolkit@eng.cam.ac.uk

 

Sept 2009 — The home page was revamped, and the site was restructured to better reinforce the key themes of "what is" "why do" and "how to". Screen reader navigation of the site was also streamlined.

June 2009 — The vision and hearing impairment simulators were combined into a single application, which also hosts an installable version of the simulators. Some new sample images were added to the vision impairment simulator, including ones that specifically demonstrate colourblindness and short and long sightedness. A test clip was added to the hearing impairment simulator to encourage users to set their volume correctly.

April 2009 — The exclusion calculator was updated with a new interface.

 

August 2007 — The contents of the website were published as a book
