ADA accessibility for PDF result downloads
Louise Lynch-O'Brien
I am an associate professor and I use Mentimeter for some of my undergraduate courses at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. With all digital materials (liek PDF downloads of mentimeter presentations) I need to meet the new federal ADA requirements that are required for all public universities.
We must follow digital accessibility requirements for ADA Title II regulations. The PDF downloads of presentations are unreadable (they "read" in Canvas as scanned documents... meaning people using a screen reader cannot easily navigate the document, if at all.)
I'm hoping you can provide guidance on how to generate PDFs of slides that are readable and meet these new regulations. I'd be interested in knowing if there are other alternatives to help give me access to the PDFs (add headers, add descriptions to images, etc.). Can you help? to meet the new federal ADA requirements that are required for all public universities, I'll have to go back or power points.
