Event Series

Faculty, Staff, Graduate & Professional Students, Postdoctoral Fellows

Event Time

Monday, October 16, 2017 - 12:00pm to 12:30pm

Event Description

Incorporating images, graphs, and maps into your instruction provides multiple means of representation for students’ varying learning styles. However, purely visual information is not accessible to all learners. This talk will cover how to add alternative text—or alt text—to images in your documents, slides, or on your Canvas site so that all students can benefit. Led by Katherrine Healey, McDougal Graduate Teaching Fellow.
