Canvas Course Accessibility
Accessibility is important part of all courses that we provide at Utah State and ensures our courses are usable for all students. There are a variety of tools and resources available to help you make your course materials accessible.
Getting Started with Accessibility
It is important to remember that accessibility is a journey rather than a destination. There are a number of quick and easy things you can do when getting started that can make a big difference.
The Getting Started with Accessibility page provides some good resources if you are new to accessibility.
USU Canvas Accessibility Tools
Ally Accessibility Checker
The Ally Tool provides feedback on your course material and automatically creates alternate formats for students.
TidyUP Tool
Over time your Canvas course can accrue unnecessary files and it can be difficult to know which ones are still relevant to focus your efforts on. The File Cleanup Tool helps you identify and delete unnecessary files in your courses.
