Practicing Accessibility Standards in Open Course Materials

Do you want to make the teaching materials you create more accessible to your students and others who might adopt them? The OER Outreach Working Group and Services for Students with Disabilities are hosting a workshop to teach instructors how to implement accessibility standards in the learning objects they create, including digital documents, video, and Canvas. 

By the end of this workshop, participants will:
