On November 18, Canvas@UD users can join institutions worldwide for Fix Your Content Day 2025, hosted by Anthology Ally. This 24-hour competition is part of our ongoing commitment to inclusive education.
How can you help? Together, we will aim to fix as many accessibility issues and course files as possible. Every fix—big or small—contributes to a more inclusive learning environment for all students. All you need to do is make changes in your Canvas course through the Ally instructor feedback panel.
- Review your courses for red and orange accessibility indicators. Click on them and make the suggested improvements.
- Focus on quick wins like adding image descriptions or titles which can be done directly through the Ally instructor feedback panel.
- After fixing Microsoft Word or PDF documents, upload them through the Ally instructor feedback panel.
- Start fixing on November 18 and keep things going throughout the day.
- Aim for 100%, but improvement is what counts!
