Maintaining accessibility is the responsibility of everyone involved in editing, designing, developing, procuring, managing, and approving digital content. The university is organizing a 10-Day Accessibility Challenge pilot to help individuals learn simple ways to make their courses accessible in Canvas.
This challenge launches with a kick-off meeting and the first challenge on Monday, July 24, and concludes on Friday, August 4. Participants will meet again to reflect on the experience and to congratulate their efforts. Meetings are optional and will be held in person and via Zoom.
Faculty can register to participate in the challenge here.
