Planning for Accessibility: A Blueprint for Crafting More Inclusive E-Learning Experiences
Presented by:
​
Raye Shilen, Director of Quality, Yukon Learning
​
Session Description:
​
Join us as we lay the foundation for inclusive e-learning experiences, all before you click ‘Open’ on your Articulate 360 dashboard. Become an “accessibility architect” by focusing on content, visual design, interactivity, and functionality to reduce project timelines and increase development efficiency. You’ll learn how to make accessibility part of your overall course design from the start, rather than treating it as an add-on at the end. We’ll provide the tools and know-how for creating e-learning structural masterpieces that are accessible to all learners. Note: The concepts covered in this session are applicable in any e-learning development tool.
