AsULearn has a built-in Accessibility Toolkit for identifying common accessibility issues in your course. It is a useful tool, however, you might find that a consultation with our faculty consultant is helpful when evaluating the results of the review to help explain the errors and potential fixes. We also recommend you complete adding most (if not all) of your content and activities to your course before using the toolkit.
