Instructional Accessibility

Vanderbilt instructors and professors work to incorporate accessibility in every aspect of their teaching. Digital accessibility is built on WCAG guidelines, which standardize known access principles like:

• Heading structure
• Alternative text for images
• Captioning and description for videos
• Contrast minimums
• Descriptive hyperlinks
• Tagged lists
• Structured tables

On the side of this page, we've created some resources to help you feel confident about the classroom materials that you are disseminating.

If you have general questions about how to share materials through Brightspace, you can contact Vanderbilt's Brightspace support.
