NED: Accessibility

This webinar is set up to guide you through three essential strategies to make your course materials more accessible using Microsoft 365 tools. We’ll be covering:

  • How to effectively use headings
  • How to add alt text to images
  • How to use the Word Accessibility Checker to review documents

These tools are simple to use but can have a huge impact on how students engage with your content. As we go through the examples today, we’ll be thinking from a student-centered perspective, ensuring that we create materials that work for everyone, including students with disabilities.

Facilitators: Robin Anderson, Chad Anderson, Dave Blanchard, ​ Kent Dahlman, Deanna Forsman, D Newborg, Kara Olson, Jody Ondich
