Accessibility in eLearning design is more than making accommodations for those with disabilities. When you consider the broad range of individuals that are your learners, you will find that designing for accessibility is a requirement, not an option. In this session, we break down barriers and introduce you to five essential practices to create more accessible digital content. Not only will these practices integrate seamlessly into your design process without adding unnecessary work, but they will also enhance the learning experience for everyone.
Learning Objectives:
Use screen readers to identify accessibility issues; manage the structure and order of your digital content, and make better color decisions in your design.
Decide when to use alt text and image descriptions, how to write them, and where to add them.
Determine when and why to use closed captions, transcripts, and audio description versions of your video content.
