Welcome to the Accessibility Toolbox, a resource designed to support faculty in creating accessible and inclusive learning environments for all students. Below, you will find tools, guidelines, and resources to help ensure that your course materials and digital content are accessible to all students.

While this page offers a variety of resources for making your digital content accessible, please note that the Office of Accessibility Services (OAS) is your primary support resource at the University of Central Missouri for any questions or assistance related to accessibility accommodations.

YuJa Panorama

YuJa Panorama is an accessibility tool designed for higher education institutions to improve the accessibility of digital course content. It integrates with Learning Management Systems (LMS) to automatically scan documents and provide alternative formats (such as audio, braille, HTML, and ePub), accessibility scores, and real-time feedback for instructors. This empowers educators to create more inclusive learning environments and helps institutions meet ADA and WCAG compliance standards. Panorama's accessibility checker is more comprehensive than the accessibility checkers embedded in Microsoft applications. While Microsoft does a good job of identifying basic accessibility concerns, Panorama flags accessibility issues designed to create inclusive learning environments by ensuring all content is accessible to all learners, regardless of their accessibility needs.

This guide will walk you through using Yuja Panorama, Brightspace’s integrated accessibility checker, to identify and remediate common accessibility issues in your course.
