FACULTY: Join TU’s commitment to inclusive education during Blackboard’s May 18 challenge

Join us for Global Accessibility Awareness Day (GAAD)! Towson Blackboard will be participating in this 24-hour global event committed to creating accessible and more inclusive digital learning content across classrooms and institutions. Join us and together we can work on making your course content more accessible for all!

• Date: Thursday, May 18, 2023
• Time: 10 a.m. – 1 p.m.
• Location: Cook Library, Room 405
• No registration needed.

Can’t make it to the event? You can fix your files with accessibility issues:

• Start clicking those red and orange indicators in your Blackboard courses and improve as many files as you can.
• Focus on images that need a description and Word documents to start.
• Aim for 100% but improvement is what counts!
• Learn about accessibility in Blackboard and see resources for using Bb Ally to fix files.
