NCDAE: The National Center on Disability and Access to Education

Increasing universal access by
developing educational resources

Resources

From its inception, NCDAE has created many resources intended to increase awareness of universal access and the need to develop accessible electronically-mediated education. The target audience is broad and includes policy makers, educators, and industry leaders. Here you can find informative cheatsheets, articles, and institutional tips that further increase understanding of electronic accessibility, along with archives of past NCDAE activities. For more resources that are updated monthly, view our newsletter.

Cheatsheets

A series of informative accessibility handouts, or "cheatsheets," have been developed to assist anyone who is creating accessible content using everyday tools such as Microsoft Word and YouTube. These resources are one printed page each and are developed specifically for less-technical individuals, such as faculty.
