Alt Text: What to Write
Images are decorative, functional, or informative. Skip alt text for decorative. Describe the action for functional. Convey the message for informative.

One way to improve your assessments is to convert traditional multiple choice questions into mini-scenarios. 🧵
Process:
1. Align to the objective
2. Find the real-world use
3. Set the scene to provide context for decision-making
4. List alternatives: One correct answer plus two distractors
