Digital AccessibilitySelected resources from Power Learning Solutions on how to maximize Digital Accessibility compliance with your teaching and learning resources.

I'm by no means an expert in all things Digital Accessibility -- but I am learning, because I think that it is vitally important that I do the things that are easy for me to do, which can have a huge impact for all of my potential learners and colleagues. To that end, this page provides selections of some of the resources that I have created related to things that I do already, and provides some useful tips and tricks to increase your compliance with basic digital accessibility standards.
