Accessible Word Documents: Five Habits That Make Course Materials Easier to Use (Summer 2026)

NED: Accessibility

Accessible Word documents do not have to be complicated. This session will focus on five practical habits that make course materials easier for students to navigate and use: headings, lists, descriptive links, images and alt text, and the built-in accessibility checker. We’ll look at examples and discuss how small changes in everyday documents can improve clarity, usability, and accessibility.

Accommodations

The NED is committed to providing universal access to all of our events, we’d like to discover how we can make the event more inclusive so you can fully participate!

Machine generated captions are available in real-time for all Zoom events, however human generated CART (live caption) service and ASL interpretation can be requested with advanced notice (2 weeks) to make the event more accessible.

Please, let us know of any disability-related accommodations that will facilitate your full participation.
