Presentations made available to, or requested by, students, need to be made accessible.

• When presenting in a lecture; images, graphs, and charts should be described. This includes virtual presentations and when recording so captions can be generated.

Microsoft PowerPoint

When designing PowerPoints:

• Use a built-in template whenever possible.
• Use high-contrasting font colors (e.g. a dark font on white background).
• Use 20-point font sizes or higher when possible.

When providing PowerPoints to students as course content or a study aid:

• Give images an Alt Text description that conveys’ both meaning and context of the image.
• Use the Microsoft Accessibility Checker.
• Check reading order and adjust it as needed.
  • Use the Reading Order Pane
