Things to Consider
by Ed Tech | Sep 14, 2015
Posting Handouts Online
- Don’t scan in notes, articles, example text, etc. Scans are treated like images and cannot be read by assistive technology.
- Type up hand written notes.
- Provide a link to information/articles when possible.
- If using a piece of text from an email or letter, retype the information into your document, again, don’t place it in as a scan or an image.
Choosing Textbooks
- Decide on which textbook and instructional materials you are going to use early! This allows time for any conversions into alternative formats to be done. This process can take from 2-4 weeks to complete. By ordering early students can be ready to go at semester start.
- Choose textbooks and materials that have accessible electronic versions available.
