Accessibility Month                                                                                                    November is Accessibility Month!  ITDS along with the Technology Accessibility Advisory Committee are offering several opportunities to get you up-to-speed on making your publications and documents accessible. Every faculty and staff member that uses technology to impart information is responsible for ensuring accessibility to all users. We’re providing a page of accessibility tutorials, including PDFs and video tutorials, set to be launched on the “Tech Help” tab within MyRedDragon.

Blackboard Workshops*:

ITDS continues to provide Blackboard workshops throughout the month of November. Now that midterms are done, it is a great time to set up an appointment with a member of ITDS to:

• Set up your grade center to calculate students’ grades
• Prepare to calculate final exams and grades
• Get a head start on setting up winter and spring courses
