This is a helpful resource that anyone designing slides can use to ensure their powerpoints are accessible. It would be beneficial to use these tips as a checklist prior to giving a presentation.

This is a great resource! I liked how it was laid out the steps in an organized matter and included links for more information. The page wasn't too cluttered with text.

These tips were easy to follow and could be implemented by anyone creating a slideshow.

It took me several years of struggling with the heavy door to my building, sometimes having to wait until a person stronger came along, to realize that the door was an accessibility problem, not only for me, but for others as well. And I did not notice, until one of my students pointed it out, that the lack of signs that could be read from a distance at my university forced people with mobility impairments to expend a lot of energy unnecessarily, searching for rooms and offices. Although I have encountered this difficulty myself on days when walking was exhausting to me, I interpreted it, automatically, as a problem arising from my illness (as I did with the door), rather than as a problem arising from the built environment having been created for too narrow a range of people and situations.
