Teaching Accessible Writing Practices

As instructors have worked to make their courses and practices more accessible to all students, we have paid increased attention to the features of assignment design and strategies for making electronic documents more useful to all students. In this lunch panel, instructors share accessible practices, including the use of hierarchical headers, captions, and alt tags that support students on the production of accessible and readable documents.

Facilitator: Matthew Luskey (Assistant Director, Writing Across the Curriculum)
Audience: Faculty members, instructors, and graduate students
Format: Onsite faculty and student panel and discussion
