How can we design an #accessible #learning resource as educators?

Recognising the challenge of navigating guidance like UDL & WCAG - we made this resource as a one-page guide!

This is really helpful. The one I am not sure about is the click here. But I suppose that a mouse hover makes the link obvious?

Depends on your screen reader I believe. Many people prefer to know where that click leads before they click.

I understand. I usually write 'to register on Ticket Tailor, click here'.

Great advice from @leefallin.bsky.social on #UDL and accessibility. Except one thing - automatic formatting is often unhelpful, and bossy unintended formatting is difficult to remove by design. We are forced to accept formatting that creates errors and isn't wanted.

This is always a tricky area as every individual can have different accessibility preferences. Suitability for those who use screen readers is reflected in this graphic but taking such #UDL decisions does not preclude open discussions with your users.

Always good to discuss with individuals and assistive services, but TBH I have never heard anyone being delighted with autoformatting. The problem is that it is hard to undo. #ShitebyDesign

I've never used it I'm afraid. Loving the hashtag though!!

You've never used a Word document? Templates are pretty much all the same.
