Accessibility Tools for Canvas

Summary

Check the accessibility of your course content within Canvas.

Rich Content Editor accessibility checker

The Rich Content Editor (RCE) in Canvas includes an accessibility tool that detects common accessibility errors within the editor.

UDOIT course scan

UDoIT (Universal Design Online Content Inspection Tool) identifies accessibility issues in Canvas course content and provides resources on how to address common accessibility issues.

Content Audit Tool (CAT)

CAT scans your entire course to find content (Files, Pages, and Assignments) that is linked or visible to students. Use this tool to help you clean up course content that may be old and no longer necessary to be copied forward to the next term.
