About

I’m Nick Freear, a Senior Accessibility and Usability Consultant at AbilityNet.

Until August 2021, I was an Educational Technology (Web) developer in the Institute of Educational Technology at The Open University. I am passionate about Web standards and accessibility. Projects to which I’ve contributed include Moodle, Drupal, WordPress and CloudEngine – all free / open-source projects.

And, I wrote the book Moodle 2 for Teaching 4-9 Year Olds Beginner’s Guide, published by Packt.

I live in Milton Keynes with my wife and daughter, and do some cycling, kayaking and singing.
