Accessible Documents Part 1: Creating New Documents

Accessible and Inclusive Design Workshop Series

This series features practices to create more accessible and inclusive classes for students, particularly students with disabilities and/or who are neurodivergent. It centers needs and recommendations students have identified (see the Practitioner Guide: Accessibility) and was developed in consultation with specialists at the Accessible Education Center (AEC). Series facilitators include staff from TEP, UO Online, AEC, and the Library; workshops occur Wednesdays from 1-2 pm throughout the spring term.   This series is open to all instructors at any existing level of knowledge and is meant to be a co-learning experience (we’re learning too!).  

Session 3: Accessible Documents Part 1 - Creating New Documents

Creating accessible documents is a must for every instructor and every unit. When we create documents accessibly, we ensure students (and colleagues) can access them. We can also save significant time by not needing to “retrofit” inaccessible documents. Join us in this session to learn the key questions to ask before you create your documents, and some of the key guidelines for making your documents readable to all people, the first time.

Join in person in the Dream Lab, Knight Library 122A or via zoom.
