[Athen] Accessibility checker software

[Ozi, Selim]

Greetings,

1-Has any school successful method, of using HI software/deque/site improve. Com etc..

-Installed on Black board servers either hosted or school is hosting. Being able detect image files pdf,tiff, png , inaccessible action scripting etc.. as well as
Those courses has publisher online my lab/my connect series ( such as Pearson/McGraw-Hill nice  flash work! )  embedded along with the faculty created content.

2-Does your school using fixed /mandatory accessible blackboard templates for faculty for course authoring tools if so is this better than using black board native templates.
    Any version can comment here.. web ct or blackboard 9 and up..

3- does your school has strict policy's for  faculty creating black board course where image files , Publisher on line content, in accessible links taking third party learning content embedded are filtered/blocked by server policy?
If so what version of black board you are using, what is your system: is it early detection like hi or deque or is this a lock down server policy.. What do you recommend?

4- does your school has an policy and standards for faculty creating blackboard courses: stating something like: faculty is responsible creating accessible course content etc..

5- does your faculty has a time line to create the online course module and submit for accessibility evaluation ..let's say 30 days before ?

6- does your DSO/access /inclusive education office audit /evaluate repair  online courses if not whose job is it ?

Sorry for the English grammar &  long post.. its been a sucky couple of weeks.

Cheers.
