Creating a culture of accessibility in university web development teams is really important. Here are some simple ways to do this based on my experiences:

1. Education and Training

• Workshops: Hold workshops that teach web accessibility guidelines, such as WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines). Making these workshops interactive can help everyone remember what they learn!
• Resources: Share helpful materials like blogs and easy-to-follow checklists that explain accessibility standards.

2. Frequent Collaborations and Discussions

• Team Meetings: Make it a habit to talk about accessibility in every team meeting. You could even create a 'tip of the week' section focused on a specific accessibility topic.
• Code Reviews: Include accessibility checks during code reviews. This is a great chance to share tips and learn from each other.

3. Implementing Tools and Technologies

• Automated Testing: Use tools like Axe or Lighthouse to check for accessibility issues in real-time. Automating these tests can save time and make things easier.
• Keyboard Navigation: Encourage team members to navigate their projects using just the keyboard. This can help find problems that might not show up with regular use.

4. Creating Accessibility Champions

• Leadership Roles: Find and support team members who can be 'champions' of accessibility. These champions can lead the way in making improvements.

By following these steps, frontend developers can make sure that accessibility becomes a key value in their university web development teams. It’s all about helping each other and understanding how important it is to create designs that everyone can use!
