EASI listserv on BlackBoard

Norm Coombs' web site EASI is an excellent source of info on library accessibility since he closely monitors the technology used in elearning and its impact on people with disabilities. I highly recommend subbing to his library accessibility list.

At the end of March he announced a new list discussing problems with BlackBoard's accessibility. I thought his email was worth sharing in case any of you might be interested:

We want either current Blackboard users with disabilities or support people helping users with disabilities. We want to share what problems we have found. We also want to share work rounds or other tips that people have found useful. Our goal is first to help one another and second to make the relevant Blackboard people aware of our findings as the continue working on
improving their system. If you fall into this category and want to join the discussion, send email to
listerv@listserv.icors.org
In the email say:
sub easiplan (and then include your name)
