as always, the materials the instructors post may be a different story, but that’s where your skills will come into play. <grin><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p><span style="color:black"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="color:black">My campus is considering moving to Canvas from Blackboard for its LMS. One class this summer is utilizing Canvas and waiting on student feedback. There are only 11 students in the online class. The only student registered with
my office is an 84 year old non-traditional student (she WILL get that degree!!!
</span><span style="font-family:"Segoe UI Symbol",sans-serif;color:black">😉</span><span style="color:black">). Anyone have any feedback regarding the accessibility of Canvas with JAWS and Zoom Text? I have reviewed the Canvas Voluntary Product Accessibility
Template (VPAT), but I would like some feedback from actual users or DSS professional's opinions.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
