Creating Accessible Learning: PowerPoint 2016
Why It Matters
PowerPoint is a tool that allows us to present content in a meaningful way. Taking steps to build accessibility into your PowerPoint presentation as you go along will ensure that all individuals have equal and equivalent access to learning from your content with equivalent ease of use. It will also ensure that your presentations function and interact appropriately with assistive technology.
