Extended Abstract: 

As online education grows in popularity, so do our challenges to provide accessible online learning for those with disabilities. What may take a student 3 hours to complete a standard assignment, may take someone with disabilities longer because of the added challenges, such as obtaining a document in usable format to navigating on a learning management system. In this session, we will explore online tools that provide a visual experience on how your online materials perform for those with disabilities. You will learn tips and tricks to build or create online courses and materials to be accessible. This session will help equip you to create an accessible environment to meet the needs of all types of learners.
