If there were design principles that significantly improved the accessibility of your eLearning courses would you use them?
Universal Design for Learning might be new to you, and your instructional designers. But accessibility is something we are all familiar with and should be working towards improving. With today's authoring tools, like dominKnow | ONE, you can easily implement accessible learning content using universal design principles.
On this episode, Judy Tseng spoke with us about her team’s approach to making accessibility a leading focus of development. We talked about how everyone should understand how to create training content that is easily navigable, and understandable for all users so that even if a participant has dyslexia, visual impairments, or is an English language learner, then can still navigate and comprehend the content just as successfully as the rest of their colleagues.
You'll be ready to create engaging training content accessible to a wide variety of audiences by simply following some very basic UDL principles.
