Event Description

When a person cannot see an image, they rely on alternative text to describe it to them. The text is not visible on screen, but is read aloud by an assistive technology called a screen reader. This class answers the most common questions about alt text:

  • What is alt text?
  • How do you describe images well with alt text?
  • How do you know if an image should be marked as decorative?
  • What about charts and data visualizations?
  • We will also cover common scenarios.
