Fix Your Content Day 2025

Tuesday, November 18

On Fix Your Content Day, the NIU community has 24 hours to make as many content fixes as possible via the Anthology Ally instructor feedback tool. By the end of the day, we hope to have made a significant impact on the accessibility of our course materials, reducing barriers for students with disabilities and creating a more inclusive environment for all of our students! 

While the goal is to do the right thing and support our students, there is also a competition among institutions to keep us motivated. Using data from Anthology Ally, the global leaderboard ranks each participating institution by the ratio of files improved to the total number of students.

Throughout the day, CITL will offer workshops and hands-on office hours to help you get started with Ally and improve your content accessibility. Join us for great sessions including a panel on digital accessibility standards, using Ally, making multimedia accessible, and creating accessible materials in Microsoft Word and PowerPoint.
