Making a Plan: Developing a Strategy for Course Accessibility

In this workshop, after establishing a shared understanding of digital accessibility, Mary-Colleen addresses a key question faculty ask when creating a plan to make their content accessible: Where should I start? She helps participants establish a starting point in three steps: an informal audit of tools and workflow; thinking about the "First Next Thing;" and setting up a cleaner, leaner Canvas Course. During three guided activity sessions participants taking the time to reflect on where they are starting from as a way to start developing a workable accessibility plan for their content. Finally, she shared tips on how to prioritize content to focus on first.
