If you'd like to be involved in helping to ensure Canvas meets your accessibility needs, let me know and we can add you to the Canvas course where most of the collaborative work takes place. <br><br></div>Also, Hadi Rangin is currently leading a small team that is doing a comprehensive accessibility evaluation of Canvas. Any evaluation is only a snapshot since Canvas has a very rapid upgrade cycle and most upgrades include fixes to accessibility bugs. Still, this evaluation will capture the current state of Canvas accessibility.
