    Collaborative editing of documents by differently abled users - Sustainable solutions for practice
    (Mensch und Computer 2024 - Workshopband, 2024) Bittenbinder, Sven; Müller, Claudia; Effert, Jana-Sophie; Schwarz, Thorsten; Zimmermann, Gottfried; David, Nadia; Mörike, Frauke
    In working and learning settings, collaborative work on shared documents, synchronously and asynchronously, is common and even necessary. Supporting tools are currently based on web applications such as GoogleDocs, Microsoft Word or Overleaf. These tools offer special functions to make collaborative editing of documents effective and efficient, but not for all user groups. There are already studies that examine such tools technically for their accessibility, but few studies examine the process of collaborative working on documents by people with and without disabilities, the real-world challenges and established practices. The question requires a socio-technical perspective to consider the impact on all stakeholders and to create sustainable solutions for accessible collaboration. The aim of this workshop is to shed light on this perspective from various angles, to discuss it and to provide new impetus for future developments in this area.

    European Accessibility Act - Practice-based approaches to meeting accessibility requirements
    (Mensch und Computer 2023 - Workshopband, 2023) Bittenbinder, Sven; Müller, Claudia; Tuncer, Zeynep
    The European Accessibility Act (EAA) sets accessibility requirements for a wide range of products and services provided by public bodies and private companies, the implementation of which in Germany is defined by the Barrierefreiheitsstärkungsgesetz (BFSG). Despite numerous approaches to make information and communication technologies (ICT) accessible, non-accessible software solutions still exist due to a lack of technical knowledge, resources and motivation. The workshop aims to discuss practical approaches and perspectives using HCI methods to support all stakeholders involved in the development of accessible ICT solutions, including end-users, decision-makers, designers, developers, quality assurance and companies as a whole. The prioritisation of accessibility needs to be rethought in the short term in order to meet the requirements of the BFSG (and thus the EAA). In particular, the individual needs and social contexts of socio-technical systems must be taken into account. The aim of the workshop is to gather and discuss different perspectives, opinions and approaches in an interdisciplinary combination of researchers, practitioners and directly and indirectly affected groups of people.
