ADHD involves executive dysfunction, time blindness, and working memory barriers that standard technology often overlooks. Cognitive accessibility, unlike sensory or motor access, is still largely treated as a productivity problem rather than an access problem. This session reframes digital tools as cognitive accessibility aids, presenting inclusive design patterns, no-code workflows, and real examples of technology that support ADHD cognition instead of overwhelming it.
