what is accessibility
Accessibility means designing digital content—like Canvas pages, web pages, documents, course material and videos—so that everyone can access and use them, including people with disabilities. This includes providing text alternatives for images, captions for videos, clear navigation, and compatibility with screen readers. Accessibility ensures all students, faculty, and staff have equal access to information, tools, and resources.
