Learn (or review) how formatting and style in Canvas, Word, Google Docs, and PowerPoint can help to make your instructional materials more usable, navigable, and beneficial for students with all kinds of identities, experiences, and abilities. Formatting and style changes can help protect students with disabilities from seizures, can help older students see and use learning materials with more ease, can support students with learning differences navigate class, and and so much more. Simple changes can make a big difference!
