Accessibility Bites: PowerPoint Slides
You often hear others talk about accessibility, but you’re not quite sure how to put it into practice (or maybe you just haven’t had a chance). These Accessibility Bites sessions are for you! Visit here: Accessibility Bites Series
Join your host Helena Prins and facilitator Josie Gray in Zoom for one or all of the five 30-minute sessions taking place on the last Thursday of every month except December.
Session 3: PowerPoint Slides
November 30, 2023 from 12:00 to 12:30 PM PT
This is a short drop-in session where we will explore how to design and remediate presentation slides so they are accessible. We will talk about design considerations that are unique to slides (whether you’re teaching online or in person), as well as how accessible content can be created in PowerPoint.
What to bring:
A slide deck you want to make accessible – preferably one that you use in your work. We will focus on Microsoft PowerPoint but you can bring something in Google Slides too if that's what you have. (We will also have a PowerPoint presentation to practice on if you don’t have anything).
Schedule:
5 minutes – A presentation to highlight some key things to keep in mind when reviewing your slides.
20 minutes - Everyone works individually on their own slides to identify and fix accessibility errors. Your host and facilitator will be available for questions.
5 minutes - Everyone will come back together to reflect on how that went and ask any additional questions.
