Are you equipped to provide accessible content to your students? Bring your laptop to gain hands-on experience to strengthen your answer to that question.

This session will provide a brief overview of disabilities, challenges disabilities cause, and types of assistive technologies students may use to access your content. More importantly, this session provides practical guidance for applying accessibility best practices to your documents.

Attend with your laptop containing your existing documents (e.g., syllabus) and with your head containing an open mind with a touch of curiosity. Together we will resolve a few of the most common and most important accessibility issues. Let's be a team to gain a sense of an accessible experience within this inclusive and safe learning space.

Come with an interest in creating accessible content. Leave with a strong sense that applying accessibility best practices opens the path of better experiences for all your students within our shared digital world.
