Provide alternatives for auditory information

Information conveyed solely through an audio format is not accessible to all learners. Students with hearing impairments, memory challenges or other difficulties, or who need additional processing time will not be able to access your information if it is only presented through sound. You can remove this barrier by providing alternatives for auditory information. Use the following suggestions and resources on this page to create these alternatives.
