titleHow do I add someone to my eLearning course?make my files accessible?

Creating accessible files is not as daunting a task as many believe it to be. These six steps will go a long way in making your content more accessible.

  1. Provide Alternative Text descriptions (ALT Text) on photos or images
  2. Provide a text equivalent for charts or graphs.
  3. Use descriptive text for links
  4. Limit the use of color text, use only 1 color as a "hightlight" color.
    • Color blind students, and visually impaired students may not see that color as you see it (red may appear olive or grey).
    • Students with cognitive impairments, dyslexia, or other conditions can be confused and distracted by many different colors on a page.
    • Screen readers are not typically set to read the color of text as it disrupts the content flow.

  5. Use the Heading and list features when creating your documents
