Pros & Cons

Pros Cons
  • pros

    The content is simple to follow and understand, making it useful for individuals who are not used to studying. The course provides a great basic overview of web accessibility, particularly for beginners with no prior experience.

  • cons

    The subtitles are inaccurate at times, which can be frustrating for learners. The instructor takes too many pauses, talks too slowly, and goes off on unrelated tangents, making the course less engaging. Additionally, the intro is excessively long. 3. The course lacks content for programmers, giving the impression that accessibility is solely the responsibility of UX/UI designers. More JavaScript examples and questions would be beneficial.
