Starting Tuesday, July 30, LITS will need to temporarily deactivate the accessibility integration in Moodle while we switch to a new provider called Ally.
While this integration is down, students and instructors will need to use alternative assistive technology features:
- SensusAccess Document Converter to convert course materials to alternative formats (e.g., epub, doc/text, mp3, etc.)
- Standalone assistive technologies recommended by Access Services to read course materials
- Accessibility checkers built into Adobe Acrobat and Microsoft programs to find and fix any accessibility problems in course materials before uploading them to Moodle
We expect the process of shifting to a new service provider to last a few weeks; once it is complete assistive technology and accessibility checking features will once again be directly accessible from within Moodle.
We apologize for the inconvenience this causes; if you have any questions or concerns, please contact us through the Help Desk (help@brynmawr.edu, 610-526-7440).
