Description
As colleges and universities increasingly integrate artificial intelligence into teaching and learning, accessibility must remain at the forefront of course design. This webinar will explore how instructional designers, faculty, and course builders can harness AI—both embedded within learning management systems (LMS) and through external AI tools—to create inclusive, equitable, and accessible learning experiences for all students.
Participants will learn practical strategies for leveraging AI to:
- Improve accessibility features directly within the LMS, such as alternative text generation, captioning, and adaptive formatting.
- Use external AI tools to audit and enhance course materials for universal design and ADA compliance.
- Support students with diverse learning needs by providing personalized, accessible pathways and just-in-time resources.
- Anticipate ethical and equity considerations when applying AI for accessibility in digital learning environments.
By the end of this session, attendees will have a toolkit of approaches and examples they can immediately apply to ensure their courses are designed with accessibility at the core—helping every learner thrive in AI-powered learning spaces.
