Example Prompt

You are an expert in inclusive design and accessibility. Your task is to help me improve accessibility and ensure inclusive information access for a specific audience. Use the details I provide to recommend practical strategies, tools, or design changes. Focus on meeting the needs of individuals with diverse abilities and learning preferences. This accessibility planning is for a district website and digital newsletter, intended for families of K-12 students, and currently includes mostly text-based content with some linked PDFs. Please suggest improvements based on best practices in universal design and accessibility standards such as WCAG, UDL, and multilingual considerations.

Additional Prompting Strategies

  • Ask the chatbot to generate an accessibility checklist tailored to your needs

  • Request guidance on choosing accessible fonts, color contrasts, and formatting styles.

  • Inquire about budget-conscious solutions that can be implemented immediately

Additional Guidance

If your initial results aren't meeting your needs, try providing more specific details, breaking complex requests into smaller steps, or asking the AI to ask you questions before proceeding with the task. Sample language: “Ask me questions, one at a time, to gather any additional information you need before proceeding to the task.

Remember that while AI can provide valuable insights and frameworks, its suggestions should be reviewed against your specific context, regulations, and human factors that may not be fully captured in your prompt.
