Accessible Instructional Materials Webinar (Fall 2020)

Accessible Instructional Materials Webinar

About this Event

This session is offered as a webinar via Zoom. This event is for Cal State LA faculty and staff only.

An important component of designing and building an online or hybrid course is to ensure that the instructional materials are accessible for students with disabilities. In this workshop, we will demonstrate several things instructors can do to ensure accessibility of their course materials.

Preference will be given to those who are pursuing CETL's Designing Online Courses (DOC) program this semester.

We will cover:

• The importance of closed captioning, and who it may benefit
• How to utilize alt-text descriptions to enhance meaning
• Considering alternative formats for instructional materials
• Using Word Styles for clarity and organization
