I& #39;m enjoying learning about creating accessible slides and documents as we pivot to #OnlineLearning with @eyeonaxs and @min_d_j.
Remember to use Styles, Links, Images, Design, and Empathy (or Evaluation).

Styles: Always use styles in the right order as this allows screen readers to understand the layout.
Links: Avoid "Click here" because 1) there& #39;s no meaningful text & 2) the language is exclusionary because some people will be tapping or using a screen reader to access the link
Design: Ensure text and background have sufficient contrast; use a tool like https://bit.ly/ColourContrastAnalyser
Think">https://bit.ly/ColourCon... about typography and font choices.

Using text justification on both L and R sides creates distracting white rivers. Left-justify only for readability.

Evaluate: Use the built-in accessibility in MicroSoft products or use the Grackle Add-On for G suite, but remember to not rely on those but also think about good practice in accessibility.
