Carroll recently added a powerful web accessibility tool to our Canvas pages that allows users to

Download alternative formats such as a pdf, podcast, etc. of files in a course
Change the course to enhance their experience using preexisting Accessibility Profiles (Motor Impaired, Color Blind, Dyslexia, Visually Impaired, Cognitive & Learning, ADHA, and Seizure & Epileptic), adjust content such as spacing, font sizing, font, etc., and adjust color including switching to dark mode.

Alternative Formats

When you log in to your course, you will see a blue accessibility icon next to any attachment in your modules. Click the icon to select the type of alternative format you would like to use. The format will be generated and you will be given a link for download. Please note that the software does not create digitally accessible formats unless the original is digitally accessible.

Web Accessibility

If you want to adjust your course for an experience more suitable to your needs, click the purple accessibility icon in the lower right of the screen and select either an Accessibility Profile or customize the course using content and color adjustments. The software will remember your choices.
