Hello my accessibility friends,

My friend and the new accessibility support specialist, Jean Ducrot would like to have a brainstorming session with a few experts in the accessibility field to discuss potential accessibility solutions with mand and economy content in particular some specific graphs types. PMs from math and economy will be part of the conversation.
This is an opportunity to work with Pearson team directly to address some of the long and outstanding accessibility issues with such content. Note that it an opportunity to shape and drive the accessibility solutions of such content.

If you are interested, please let me know. The goal is to meet some time in the week of June 28th.

Thanks,
Hadi

Hello everyone,
I hope everyone is doing well.
I'm looking for information on audio description within Kanopy. I found a post regarding that there was no support for audio description dated Feb. 2020. Does anyone have any current information?
Thanks-

Alice,

To my knowledge, Kanopy supports embedded captions but not audio descriptions. That info is based on a compliance evaluation from 2020 from Madison College Libraries. Here's a link for their brief report:

Hope this helps.
