How to Process Unit Review

Publishers can publish and review content and schedule a page or revision to be published on a future date. Publishers are responsible for reviewing all changes made by editors in their unit, working with editors to identify and resolve issues with accessibility, usability and site content, and publishing page updates once finalized and approved. 

Canvas Accessibility

Canvas as a platform is accessible to assistive technology users, but the content created within Canvas is not inherently accessible. Being web-based, Canvas content follows the same accessibility considerations as detailed on the Accessible Documents and Websites page. Canvas pages within a course should be checked for accessibility compliance with the built-in checker when creating content, or with UDOIT to evaluate the whole course.

Assistive Technology

Assistive technology (AT) is an umbrella term that refers to devices or software that provide aid to those with disabilities. In regards to digital accessibility, this includes screen readers, magnifiers, braille displays, speech recognition software, and alternative input devices, among others. This page collects some informational resources on AT and links to some useful tools.

Using the Tags Panel

The Tags Panel displays the primary structure of the document. While the Order Panel provides tools to restructure what content is grouped together, how it is labeled, and when it is read, the Tags Panel gives more granular control over the latter two aspects. The order of the tags is the reading order of the document, moreso than that displayed by the Order Panel, and each tag serves a specific semantic purpose (besides grouping tags like <Part> and <Sect>).
