Computer Accessibility and Productivity Cue Cards

About the Cue Cards

These Cue Cards are aimed at anyone who would like to improve their computer productivity and make their work more accessible for people with print disabilities.

• Using a computer well requires many small actions to be performed automatically.
• Just like with playing a musical instrument or learning a foreign language, true fluent competence comes from deliberate and extensive practice.
• The Cards were designed to be an easy reference resource that can facilitate this kind of practice.
• Focus on one or two cards a week. Put the relevant Cards in sight of your monitor.
• Every time you come to perform the action referred to on the Cue Card, stop and see if you are doing it productively and/or accessibly.

Download and Remix

The reason we licensed the cards under Creative Commons is to make it possible for you to remix them, create your own and share them with as many people as possible. We are planning to make it possible for you to share the cards you created with others online. At the moment, please send them to us at training@load2learn.org.uk and we will share them via this page. You can download them formatted for Microsoft Word 2007 and newer. You can also open the file in Word 2003 and Open/Libre Office. Please let us know if you would like other formats such as Word 2003, PDF or ODF.
