As technology has evolved so has Lexdis.

In this latest update we have added a Digital Accessibility Section to help organisations ensure their websites, apps and digital platforms are compatible with the range of tools and assistive technologies that are now freely available.

On Lexdis you can explore:

Strategies: review technology strategies collated from students and staff.

Digital Accessibility: find out how you and your organisation can make sure your websites, apps and digital content will be compatible with assistive technology and meet accessibility standards.

Guides: a collection of guides on how to create accessible learning materials, understanding the difficulties faced by disabled students and how to support digital accessibility across a university.
