How to Foster Accessibility and Meet Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 AA Standards with Instructure

Instructional design serves as a cornerstone in higher education, where creating inclusive and engaging learning experiences is paramount. By carefully structuring educational content, this systematic approach ensures that learning materials are not only effective and engaging, but also accessible to all students, meeting ADA Title II requirements by 2026/27. When designed thoughtfully, course content accommodates diverse learning needs through features like screen reader compatibility, alternative text for images, captioned videos, and multiple means of presenting information. This comprehensive approach to design creates flexible learning pathways that support various learning styles while meeting accessibility standards such as (WCAG) 2.1 AA Standards. The result is an educational experience that truly serves all learners, improving outcomes through universal design principles that benefit everyone – from students with specific accommodation needs to those who simply prefer different ways of engaging with course material.
