On Tuesday, November 10, 2026 UM Academic Technology invites faculty across UM System to go head to head with other institutions in Blackboard Ally’s Fix Your Content Day, a global effort to improve the accessibility of digital learning content.
Want to get ready? Take a look at your courses now and identify content you'd like to improve on November 10. Ally's accessibility indicators and Accessibility Report can help you decide where to start to identify opportunities to improve your course materials, whether that's adding alternative text to an image, improving document structure, or addressing another accessibility issue. Together, small improvements across our courses can contribute to a more inclusive learning environment for our students.
For more information on how to fix files using Blackboard Ally, check out our articles available on using Ally. Would you like to meet with someone for help? Register for one of the drop-in sessions at 10:00 am or 3:00 pm now to participate in the virtual Fix-a-Thon.
