    Accessible Text Tools for People with Cognitive Impairments and Non-Native Readers: Challenges and Opportunities
    (Mensch und Computer 2023 - Tagungsband, 2023) Heuer, Hendrik; Glassman, Elena Leah
    Many people have problems with reading, which limits their ability to participate in society. This paper explores tools that make text more accessible. For this, we interviewed experts, who proposed tools for different stakeholders and scenarios. Important stakeholders of such tools are people with cognitive impairments and non-native readers. Frequently mentioned scenarios are public administration, the medical domain, and everyday life. The tools proposed by experts support stakeholders by improving how text is compressed, expanded, reviewed, and experienced. In a survey of stakeholders, we confirm that the scenarios are relevant and that the proposed tools appear helpful to them. We provide the Accessible Text Framework to help researchers understand how the different tools can be combined and discuss how individual tools can be implemented. The investigation shows that accessible text tools are an important HCI+AI challenge that a large number of people can benefit from.

    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.
