I say this all the time to teachers & those who present to teachers & others - about live captions built into #Google Slides and #Powerpoint

Using captions is #UDL

Usable by all, necessary for some

Next time you present to a group, turn on captions- it removes barriers

Tip Tuesday! Want to see where a Bitly or TinyURL will redirect you without following the link? Add a plus sign to the end of the URL. The full web address will be displayed (then you can decide if you're going to click it). #EduSky #EdTech

I have low vision and I rely on alt text and image descriptions to provide context about images on platforms like BlueSky. If you don’t know how to write #AltText yet, I have several guides on my website that can show you how— take the #AltTextChallenge! veroniiiica.com/how-to-write... (1/10)

Alright, if AltText is something important to your use of bsky, and you'd like people to be reminded when you post, there's a new @yardcrow.com label available by request.

I just had this amazing thought. If everyone who likes this, reposts it for others to learn.

Could we actually get ALL of @bsky.app to turn on the Alt-text?

Can we shoot for 111 reposts to start ?

hey y'all!
Have you turned in your friendly alt-text reminder in Blue Sky yet?

You too can alt-text!
It's takes less then the time it takes to write a post!

& you reach more people when you do!

Alt-text- because it removes barriers!
