AllY in Canvas
AllY is an integrated application in our Canvas system that automatically checks accessibility of course content and files uploaded, to help improve course accessibility for students and instructors
Instructors: Ally provides a clickable accessibility score for each file you add to your course that launches a wizard to guide the instructor through accessibility issues found and provides how to fix tips.
Students: Ally automatically generates alternative file format options —such as tagged PDF, HTML, electronic braille, or audio—that students can download and use to support their learning.
