Accessibility Afternoons: Choosing Accessible Websites

Learn more about choosing accessible content at our new monthly workshop! “Accessibility Afternoons” are on the last Thursday of the month at 1 p.m. on Zoom. Here we'll look at how to check if outside materials are accessible, so that you can choose accessible options to add into your courses. Click on the magnifying glass in the top corner of the player to navigate via slide to different sections of the video, or search within the captions and slide text for specific topics. Also visit our Accessibility website, which has resources for course accessibility including quick guides, accessibility checkers, tips, and more. If you have questions, email Jenna Creech at jccreech@alaska.edu.
