<div dir="ltr">For us at Columbus State University, it's not all or one thing. We are rolling out an approach, keeping in mind that, at the least, critical documents need to get into the course (syllabus, schedule, gradebook). After getting familiar with how the interface works, we are then inviting use of accessible document templates, followed by demonstration and training. If we had the luxury of time, we would have folks make their Word or PDF documents accessible first, but for now we are directing people to use HTML files and providing accessible template structure into which they can copy their content and make it accessible using the LMS tools. <br clear="all"><div><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div style="font-size:small"><div dir="ltr"><div><font color="#000000">____________________________</font></div><div><b style="font-size:12.8px"><font color="#ff0000">Please fill out this short survey regarding your service today: </font></b><font color="#0000ff" style="font-size:12.8px"><a href="https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdX0a2PznlxUwwd3X680vzvxx4kUJFfX25z7S8uNvfx9IWUBg/viewform" style="color:rgb(17,85,204);font-size:12.8px" target="_blank">COOL Consultation Survey</a></font><font color="#000000"><br></font></div><div><font color="#000000">Jennifer Knott, Ed.D.<br></font></div><div><font color="#000000">Director, Center of Online Learning</font></div><div><font color="#000000">Columbus State University</font></div><div><font color="#000000">(706) 507-8695</font></div><div><font color="#000000"><img src="https://ur.columbusstate.edu/logos/logo_files/2015/CSU_Logo_Primary2.png" width="191" height="42" style="margin-right:0px"><br></font></div><div><span></span><span></span><br></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><br></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Wed, Mar 11, 2020 at 2:24 PM Keith Kolander <<a href="mailto:kkolander@stchas.edu">kkolander@stchas.edu</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">
