This hands-on workshop leads participants through three of the Seven Core Skills for digital accessibility: Headings, Lists, and Links. While these aren't difficult skills to learn, incorporating them into our daily workflows in CarmenCanvas does take practice. Together, we'll apply WCAG 2.1 AA standards and review the Ally scanner reports for these three core skills to Canvas Announcements and Pages to get in the habit of creating accessible communication even for quick messages. Participants should be ready to work on sample CarmenCanvas Announcements and Pages during the session; we recommend using a laptop or desktop instead of a tablet. 

If you have registered for this event, or are on the waitlist and require an accommodation such as live captioning or interpretation to participate, please contact drakeinstitute@osu.edu. Requests should be made at least two weeks prior to the event, but the university will make every effort to meet requests made after this date.
