Description
Learn about Ally, a tool available in Blackboard Ultra courses that improves the accessibility of course content. In 30 minutes we will demo Ally’s remediation capabilities and file conversion tools that help you create an accessible and inclusive experience for all learners.
Leverage Ally's powerful alternative format options and let students know they can download content in multiple formats that give them choices in how they watch, read, or listen to material.
Upon completing this online session, you will be able to:
- Run the Ally Accessibility Report
- Use Ally's Instructor Feedback Panel to preview and prioritize remediation
- Follow Ally's step-by-step guidance to fix accessibility issues
This session is ideal for instructors who are new to Blackboard Ultra or adopting Ultra in an upcoming term. It will be facilitated by Susan Biro, Manager, Online Learning.
