[CATO] Accessible Syllabus Bot

[Kyle Gonzalez]

Monica,

I shared this with the faculty in charge of syllabus review and my Faculty Development colleagues. There some initial privacy concerns, but I believe a few of us are going to test it out and go from there.

¡Hola!


I ran into this Accessible Syllabus Bot<https://www.playlab.ai/project/cm2awcqki0h8vtihy8vfxkt6j> tool today. It might be of interest and/or assistance to others.

Key Functions:

  *   Remediate syllabus for Universal Design for Learning 3.0 alignment.
  *   Correct your Canvas HTML code to create an ADA-compliant, WCAG 2.1 AA syllabus for Canvas.
  *   Integrate critical aspects of the Accessible Syllabus project.
  *   Create a student-centered, inclusive syllabus.

My Notes:

  *
It appears to output in HTML for Canvas and MS Word.
  *
I have not tested it yet.
  *
It offers the possibility of anonymizing your information.


Gracias,

¡Sí, hablo Español!

Any pronouns will be fine.


Accessibility is not a checkbox. Accessibility is a mindset that can lead to a very powerful sense of inclusion.
