I'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's no meaningful text & 2) the language is exclusionary because some people will be tapping or using a screen reader to access the link
Links: Put clothes on your links (❤️ this!); make the text in links meaningful.
Images: Think about the purpose of your images and use Alt Text when necessary. Can use Null for decorative images. #AEM4ALL @CAST_UDL @eyeonaxs @min_d_j
Design: Ensure text and background have sufficient contrast; use a tool like https://bit.ly/ColourContrastAnalyser
Think about typography and font choices.

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