Accessibility Tip of the Day

Posted:

As we approach the deadline for content accessibility compliance as required by Title II ADA, small changes made when creating your content will help achieve that goal. 

Today’s Tip: Titles and Headings

Use the Styles option on your Home tab in MS Word to start each document with a “Title.” Consequently, chunk the document using Heading 1, Heading 2, and Heading 3 to help students navigate the content with ease. Separating content into small, digestible information increases comprehension, engagement, and reduces cognitive load.

When creating slides in MS PowerPoint, always start with a pre-structured slide design available on the Insert menu. Create unique titles for each slide.

Please visit the Accessibility Checklist page for more tips and information.
