Accessbility on Canvas (Blackboard Ally)
Lecturer – Improve the accessibility of your course content.
Blackboard Ally works seamlessly with your Learning Management System (LMS)to gauge the accessibility of your content. Ally provides guidance and tips for lasting improvements to your content accessibility.
- Receive feedback on the accessibility of your content
- Improve content accessibility with Ally’s step-by-step instructions
In addition to providing you with insight to your content accessibility, Ally automatically creates alternative versions of your files. This allows students to choose the type of file they want that best suits their needs. While you’re in the process of improving files, students still access alternative copies.
Student – Learn your own way with Blackboard Ally.
Ally creates alternative files that are easier to use by all students. Ally works within your online course so it’s available right where you need it.
