Sharing PowerPoint presentations and handouts with students are integral parts of teaching and learning today. But, are you sure that your materials are accessible to students with disabilities? During this Accessible University talk, we will discuss some of the tips and tricks to help you create more accessible presentations and handouts. We will also share further resources you can refer to for more information.

Bring your questions and join us for this timely and relevant discussion!
