Important Accessibility Information Instructors are encouraged to reference accesscontent.berkeley.edu for best practices and resources for making course content accessible. In particular, you should refer to "Video Captions and Transcripts" and "Adding Descriptive Audio" to ensure that your content will be accessible to all students in your course (now and in the future). Keep in mind that it is harder and more expensive to make content accessible after-the-fact. Also, know that you are required to ensure your content is accessible if it will be made available to the public or if you have been notified by DSP that student accommodation is required. |
