Alternative formats provide greater opportunity for everyone to access the information they need in the way they need or want it. With alternative formats all students can meet the same learning objectives using resources that are built to target the needs of the individual student. Instructors don’t need to do anything. Ally creates the alternative formats for you. This video was created by Blackboard, Inc.
