Too often, accessibility is viewed as a compliance afterthought—something to “fix” once barriers appear. This session reframes accessibility as design choices faculty can make from the start. Together, we’ll explore how Anthology Ally supports faculty in building more inclusive course content by providing real-time guidance, alternative formats, and clear feedback. You’ll learn practical strategies for applying accessibility best practices without requiring extra technical expertise, and see how small changes can make a big impact on student success. The best part? You’ll be learning directly from Ally administrator/digital accessibility extraordinaire, Wendy Velez-Torres, of Coppin State University.
We’ll also highlight Fix Your Content Day 2025, a global event that gamifies accessibility by encouraging friendly competition among institutions to improve the accessibility of course materials. You’ll leave with actionable steps you can take right away—and a new way to engage your colleagues in the journey toward more inclusive teaching.
