We are not re-mediating a course for a particular student, but rather working on a summer project to try and get this course to meet WCAG 2.0 Level AA guidelines. We were hoping that giving this a trial run with a few courses would give us some insight into time and resources needed for others.<br><br></div>So, we have a Biology instructor who uses images of models - let's use the example of a model of a brain. The image has several areas of the brain numbered and labeled. I am looking for guidance on how one would approach alternate text for this image whether it was used as a learning guide where students are first introduced to the content or also if this image was part of a quiz question where the student had to identify a particular number that represented a section of the brain. We have thought over several approaches but would like to hear from the experts as none of us specialize in accessibility. Also, if anyone can direct me to resources that can help as it pertains to STEM diagrams/images, that would be great. <br><br></div><div>Thanks in advance for your help!<br></div><br clear="all"><div><div><div><div><br>-- <br><div data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div><b style="font-size:12.8px">Dori Lloyd</b><br></div><div dir="ltr"><div>Director, Distance Education and Instructional Technology</div><div>Reich Bldg Rm 101A</div><div><br></div><div>Davidson County Community College</div><div>P.O.
