The essential learning materials should be accessible to all students from the start of the semester.
Course syllabi are essential learning materials and should be accessible to all students from the start of the semester. Proper heading structure, readable fonts, accessible tables, and meaningful hyperlinks improve usability for students using assistive technologies.
Whenever possible, provide syllabi in accessible digital formats rather than scanned image PDFs. Building accessibility into course materials early supports inclusive learning and reduces accommodation delays.
Review syllabi for accessibility before each semester begins.
