80 — How do we make digital learning accessible?

Jan 30, 2018

As online learning designers we're often tempted to experiment with new functionality, but sometimes our enthusiasm for innovative approaches can create a barrier for users.

On this week's episode of the GoodPractice Podcast, eLearning Developer Michael Osborne and Learning and Development Advisor Mike Shaw join Ross G and Gemma to discuss their tips for creating accessible learning.

If you'd like to share your thoughts on the show, you can tweet us @RossGarnerGP, @GemmaTowersey, @MikeOzzy and @MikeShawLD.

You can also find us @GoodPractice or @GoodpracticeAus.
