Came from Google UX design program. this is amazing! and Google is so amazing! even I have a minor motor disability that society had made it for me as if was nothing, but I am able to take things in consideration again. This talk was so amazing and a inspiration for people like me to help on the creation of more accessible products.
I AM SO PROUD OF MY BROTHER Jeff Paradee Jr.!!! He did amazing at Ted X Talks! I am so THANKFUL to call this amazing man my brother, best-friend, and hero! This dude is the true definition of what with a positive mental attitude (P.MA.) we can be inspired to live life to it's fullest and inspire others to make positive changes in the world.
Google UX Design course brought me here too. First I could not keep tears in my eyes, I felt pain in my heart for such difficult story, but then it filled with pride. I am proud of you Jeff and thank you to give me inspiration, your story is amazing and you are amazing! Thanks for motivation, one day I will be as strong person as you are and I will create amazing products and I will make a lot of people's life easier!
Google UX Design program is being such a great experience, it brought me here and i can't help but think how it widened my worldview from now on, all the sucess for you Jeff!
User experience designer in progress. Thank you for opening many of our eyes. Your strength and desire to live should make us all that when designing or thinking about any product/service, all people are taken into account. It is a duty we have towards society. A big Hug from Spain Jeff!
I found you through the Google UX design certificate, and it was amazing to watch your presentation. You are so inspirational and I have learned very much about accessibility from you. I love your positive outlook and your strength to strive to live your best life. I am so glad that you have found ways to do some of the activities you have enjoyed in the past, and I would love to know how much more you are able to do now, 5 years after posting this video.
Google design programme brought me here. What we think to be ordinary and daily might not be the same for people with disabilities. I love art as well - it is hard to imagine if that is taken away. It's amazing to see that there are solutions out there that can help. It would be really great if we can make the info about these solutions more accessible and the price more affordable.
I am also having a disability in my right arm which make me hard to move it . it made me depressed . but after watching this video and this amazing man and how he overcomes the challenges I realized that I can overcome my disability too, God bless you Jeff .
This is really moving. I never thought about this in this way. Accessibility has always been my second priority while designing or even researching things. But after watching this video, I'd definitely think more about it before working on a project.
I am truly inspired by the powerful and touching stories shared by the speakers in the Google UX Design program, particularly Jeff Paradee Jr. His Ted X Talk was amazing and a true testament to the power of positive mental attitude. Jeff's bravery and strength in overcoming his motor disability is truly awe-inspiring, and his passion for creating accessible products is contagious. It's wonderful to see how technology has made daily tasks more accessible for him and others with disabilities. Jeff's story reminds us that what may seem ordinary to us can be life-changing for someone else, and it's important to keep that in mind when designing products. I hope that more people can learn about the solutions available and that they become more affordable, so that everyone can have the same opportunities to live their best lives.
Jeff, I will be showing this film to my students at Ability Now. GREAT presentation! I just can't believe that less than 37,000 persons accessed this!! ALL of us will be living with a disability at some point in our lives, so what you say here is relevant to EVERONE! Thank you for doing this!
Thank you for sharing your story and reminding us how technology has changed all our lives. I loved hearing how it has make daily tasks accessible to you. I am also a UX Design student (I saw some others in the comments) as well as an artist (in my free time). I know the urge to paint and create and how it pulls you. I'm encouraged to pursue what I love watching how you've done it, even though it was a struggle for you initially. Your process and outlook is so positive, which must have taken a lot of bravery. I want to use creativity and a design career path to make products accessible to everyone and hearing stories like yours makes what I want to do so much more real.
Jeff inspired me to be a better and more inclusive designer. Design for good is, and should be the future for everyone. Everbody benefits from accessibility.
I really appreciate this talk. Thank you. I want so badly for more technology like this, and for it to be easier to access for us, one of my biggest concerns however is the lack of privacy involved when using a lot of them, especially an increasingly privacy abusing corporate environment, especially when those of us who are sick or disabled tend to be those who get taken advantage of or harmed the most by things like this, specifically because many of us don't have other options. Here is to hoping for more ethical companies working on accessibility products, especially when it could make them a lot more money than they realize & help us a lot
What an inspiring talk! Hope companies will take note and begin to create more technology for people with disabilities - it is greatly needed. Thank you so much for presenting this topic.
my heart rises when I see this video, thank you as a great human, and so many other great human working behind to build the technology! I'll become one of them too!
As a Google UX Design student, this was inspiring, it helped me understand and re-emphasize on the importance of considering accessibility during my design phase. Thanks Jeff
I have learned art for the last 14 years and more now I am learning UX I had a dream to become a doctor but I couldn't but finally, I can contribute and serve people make life easy by designing for accessibility
Google UX Design Course brought me here, and I am so incredibly grateful. Thank you for sharing your wonderfully inspiring story. This really humanizes the design process for me.
Google UX Design program brought me here. So many good references for us to study. I am glad I took the course and I am glad I could meet Jeff Paradee. It opens your mind for so much things !
I got directed from - "Consider accessibility during user research" module (Google UX Design (Coursera)). I am really getting a deeper understanding of how inclusive design is very important for everyone. Inspirational video!
The Google UX program brought me here. I started having a keen interest in assistive technology, the very moment I came across it in my class, this furthermore reinstates my commitment to ensuring the importance of accessibility in my design process. Thanks for sharing this
Fantastic talk. It is so important to bring awareness to accessible design. The point he makes about inclusive design driving innovation and making better products is absolutely true. It's so wonderful to see him having such a rich and full life and being able to pursue his passions.
Love this quote: "So when you have a disability it can be so easy to focus on all the things you can't do, but with the right technology and guidance almost anything is possible" (I am disabled
A wave of emotions overwhelmed me during this video. Empathy, pride, gratitude to name a few. Thank you for broadening my perspective and reigniting my inspiration. I am more passionate and determined to complete my Google UX design course and begin my journey in enhancing technology for us all.
I also came here through the Google UX Design program. Thanks for the insight and the inspiration, Mr Paradee. Good luck and plenty of success in all your endeavors.
Watching Jeff is mind changing! The wold is not prepared for people with disabilities, unfortunately. That's why these kind of talks are precious: we need to understand other points of view. I've learned a lot by Jeff's experience. It was a great talk and excellent subject!
Google UX design program got me here, this is awesome and has also changed my perspective when it comes to creating technology having in mind "Accessibility"
Good speech. I had no idea there were the technologies that you're using today. But I can see there are needs for much more ! I hope you can get that out there in a bigger way than this. So far, it doesn't seem like you're getting enough exposure on this video. (Or maybe I'm just not looking in the right places ?) I hope to see you in more areas out there ! Good luck, Jeff, and God Bless !! 🙏♥️🥀
Goofle UX Design got me here and I am happy it did.. Mashallah you are such an intelligent,strong guy. You were made fot TEDx Talks. I wish more companies can invest in serving people with disabilities
Excellent Ted Talk Jeff Pardee and beautiful art work! The estimate of the Assistive Technology Market wasn't far off 6 years ago. 2023: USD 22.9 Billion. 2024 is in progress with predictions of 36.6 Billion by 2033!
Thanks to google Ux design certificate for bringing me here to know more importance of accessible designs innovative thinking...theres always a lot to know from our world as humans
It’s true that better UX design can address accessibility issues to provide convenience for everyone where it gives the independence for people with disabilities.
O curso de Ux Design me trouxe até aqui neste vídeo e sou grato por ter a oportunidade de saber como é a vida de algum com limitações, Thank you Google.
Thank you Jeff for the insight and inspiration! Can draw and game like that 😎 Convenience to mass is freedom to others. I didn’t realise how many people needed and can get assistance if companies can be mindful to include disabilities groups in the design process. And so much to gain for everyone! 😊❤️ ~ From Google UX Design course also!
