Deathbyarchitecture.com Posted February 20, 2015 Report Share Posted February 20, 2015 Design Exchange, Canada’s Design Museum, is pleased to announce the fourth year of the CONNECT: EnAbling Change Post-Secondary Design Competition. This competition invites college and university students from across the province to submit projects exploring design concepts that are accessible to everyone, and help remove barriers for people with disabilities. Students are invited to submit projects that illustrate the idea of design for all: In that the design of products and environments is usable by all people to the greatest extent possible, without the need for adaptation. The competition is open to all Ontario post-secondary students studying in all design fields. For its fourth year, the competition emphasizes accessibility in design for web and digital platforms. Ontario’s accessibility laws require some organizations to take steps to make newly developed websites more accessible to people with disabilities. These requirements will create increased demand for designers with a thorough understanding of accessibility. Students studying interactive and web design are strongly encouraged to enter. All submitted projects must have been completed during the student’s period of study in an Ontario undergraduate or graduate design program. Individual and group projects are eligible and may be completed independently or as coursework.
