Note: We are expecting a large enrollment for this course, so Lloyd may not be able to answer all the emails he receives. However, he will do his best and he will be closely monitoring the discussions for each module. So, if you have questions or problems, be sure to post them in the appropriate discussion for each module. You may find that the quickest way to get help is from your fellow participants.

Canvas provides a user experience that is easy, simple, and intuitive. Special attention has been paid to making Canvas screen-readable. The Rich Content Editor encourages users to create accessible content pages (i.e. text formatting is accomplished using styles). Canvas is designed to allow limited customization of colors and schemes to be accessible for all users. The National Federation of the Blind granted Canvas the Gold Level Web Certification in 2010.
