New tools are helping colleges and universities tackle the accessibility of instructor-created content, student coursework, note-taking and more. Although most universities have just about mastered website accessibility, their efforts to make sure all course content can be accessed and used by students with disabilities have proved more challenging. “We have been fighting this uphill battle of content accessibility for years, and we have been fighting it without knowing what is actually out there,” said Jeremy Olguin, accessible technology manager at California State University, Chico. “If you can’t inventory, you can’t manage.” But new tools are providing more transparency into classroom document accessibility and automating some steps in making more accessible alternatives available.
