In a nutshell, the Pope Tech Canvas Accessibility integration is the best thing since sliced bread! ;-)

The Page-Level Accessibility Guide

The Pope Tech Accessibility Guide is available on all Canvas pages (anywhere you find the Rich Content Editor). The tool provides you with a simple, fast and accurate way to check the accessibility of your Canvas pages as you create and/or edit them. The easy-to-use interface gives you instant feedback on accessibility issues detected in your Canvas content. Plus, built-in help documentation and examples will guide you in exactly how to fix those issues. It makes creating accessible content easier for both novice and advanced accessibility users alike.

The Pope Tech Dashboard is really two tools in one that, together, give you useful data on the accessibility status of all your courses as well as individual results for each course.

You'll find the Pope Tech Dashboard in the course navigation menu, titled "Pope Tech Accessibility."

The Course-Level Accessibility Dashboard

The course dashboard lets you scan your entire course to pinpoint exactly where accessibility concerns are located. You can see a list of your most common issues which helps you identify where you may want to get additional training and support. And best of all, you can jump right into the page-level Accessibility Guide straight from your dashboard to view and fix issues.

The My Dashboard option (in the top navigation) provides you with data on errors and alerts for all your courses in a single glance. Just like with the course dashboard, you can jump right into the Accessibility Guide to remediate identified errors or alerts. It's never been easier to make your courses as accessible as possible!
