Join the eLearning team at Engineering IT to talk about how you can leverage Canvas to make your course more accessible. There are many simple steps you can take to improve the accessibility of materials you provide, and we will share those tips with you. Making these improvements will greatly benefit your students, improve learning outcomes, and increase inclusivity. We will start with the ADA overview, cover the text and media elements that could be inaccessible, and finish with the accessibility checker in the Canvas text editor. We will also share additional resources from our campus’s accessibility experts and teams for further reading. Please come with your questions, curiosity, and a desire to make your courses shine!
