File Remediation - Welcome

Last updated by chelsea.christiansen 2 months ago

Welcome 

Welcome to the File Remediation project, where we take files used in courses and remediate them to make them more accessible.  

Overview 

Providing accessible documents is crucial for creating an inclusive learning environment, especially for students with disabilities. By remediating files, we try to ensure that all students can access, navigate, and engage with course content effectively.
