Description: Microsoft PowerPoint is a commonly used presentation tool within the higher education community, however, Web-based PowerPoint presentations do not provide for an accessible environment. Two export utilities, the Office Accessibility Wizard and LecShare Pro, allow for the conversion of PowerPoint files into accessible, Web-based presentations. Using these tools, content authors can create their materials using Microsoft Office and then convert these documents into Web-based versions that are accessible and can be viewed by individuals using just a Web browser (no plug-ins required!). Participants will be able to do the following:
  • learn the installation and configuration of the Office Accessibility Wizard and LecShare Pro
  • use the Office Accessibility Wizard and LecShare Pro to convert PowerPoint presentations to accessible Web-based formats
  • use LecShare Pro to develop accessible multimedia-enhanced presentations with captioning
  • current limitations of the export utilities
Reimbursement Level: Please be advised that reimbursement is only available for travel expenses for California community college Disabled Student Services Faculty and Staff. Hotel expenses will not be reimbursed.
