you add text to a slide using Insert / Textbox, then the text will not show up
on the outline and it will not be available to a screen reader. If you
only use the boxes that appear on the template, then all the text should be
accessible. … at least that is my experience with PPT 2003

style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'">Aloha, all. I
have an odd question that I hope someone can help with. I'm regularly
asked to review various professors' Blackboard sites for the accessibility of
their course content. I've recently started to see Powerpoint slide shows
where some slides have all the text accessible, some slides have only part of
the text accessible and part not, and some slides are completely inaccessible
(blank in Outline view). In almost every case, the prof will have been
using the same basic template for every slide, and producing very "clean" slides
-- just a title at the top and three or four bullet points of
text. Some profs are using Office 2007 and a few may still be using
Office 2003. Does anyone have a clue what could be causing this erratic
accessibility issue, and more importantly, suggestions on how to resolve
it? I'm trying very hard to coach faculty to produce accessible materials
in the first place, and they're trying to comply, but this problem is growing
and retrofitting by re-typing the slide content into Word docs and distributing
to students is not a reasonable solution at this time.
