This workshop will cover core accessibility best practices for slide decks, such as alt text, slide layout, descriptive hyperlinks, color contrast, reading order, and more. We will walk through how to apply each of these concepts directly within the Google Slides platform, including how to use the Theme feature to set up accessible design elements for your entire presentation. Participants will also learn how to use Grackle Slides, an extension tool for Google that helps you scan and fix accessibility issues within your slide deck.
