For example, if the original content is a PDF, Ally creates audio, electronic braille, and ePub formats of the same content. These formats are made available with the original file so everything is in one convenient location.
A status window appears to show the progress of the file upload. You can also add files from cloud storage, such as OneDrive. You can edit the file's settings, including the display name, alternative text, and display behavior.
You can upload files in the editor in certain areas of an Ultra course. For example, you can include an image or a document to help students understand your instructions or initial prompt.
Insert images in the editor. In some areas of an Ultra course, you can use the editor functions to add images along with text content. You can add images that are hosted online or you can upload an image from your local drive. If you add a large image, it's a good idea to include the image as a separate text link.
You can embed audio and video recordings of your feedback in the editor as you grade attempts. The recording option appears in the feedback editor for most graded items in your course. Students watch or listen to your feedback alongside any text you include.
PDF (portable document format) is an open standard for formatting documents. PDF creates files that look the same when printed as when exchanged electronically. When you share a PDF file, almost everyone can read it using free Adobe Reader® software or the Adobe Reader mobile app.
When your document is formatted using styles and tags, it will be accessible to your users who rely on assistive technology such as screen reading applications (screen readers). Accessible documents have a structure that is based on styling elements or tags. This structure provides a hierarchy of information.
Screen readers use tags to convey an information hierarchy of a document to users so that they can understand the organization of the material.
In most versions of Word, right-click an image and select Format Picture... In the dialog box, select the option for Alt Text, and then type in your alt text. Be specific and succinct so that users will quickly understand what is being described.
In accessible documents, tables are never used for formatting layout on a page because it is difficult for screen readers to understand the information architecture and what is being presented. Tables are only used to present data. For screen readers to interpret data in a table so that users can understand how the data is organized, the screen reader needs to be able to identify which cells are part of the header row and which cells contain data. You can indicate that a row repeats on the top of each page in the Table Properties menu in Word. When saved as a PDF, the first row is detected as a table header. If the Word file is saved as HTML, the table headers are not maintained. Instead, the cells are tagged as <thead>. Data cells are tagged as <tbody>.
It is easy to create links in Word by pasting the full URL into a page. When you press space or Enter, Word automatically creates a link. Change the link text to something descriptive because the URL that is automatically created may not make sense to a screen reader.
If you are using Windows, Word 2010 has a built-in Accessibility Checker. This is a good resource to help you identify and repair accessibility issues. Access the Accessibility Checker from Files > Info > Check for Issues > Check Accessibility.
