USF St. Petersburg campus Guide to Online Learning

Technology Accessibility

The University of South Florida St. Petersburg campus strives to ensure that all of our web content and online courses are accessible to all students, including those with disabilities. We recognize that many of our students with disabilities use assistive technologies to help them navigate their online course content. We have compiled the information and resources below to support successful access.

For full details on the USF's accessibility commitment, view the USF Minimum Web Accessibility Standards.

Canvas Accessibility

The Canvas Accessibility Guide provides information, tips, and specifications organized into the following categories:

  • Screen Readers and Browsers
  • Keyboard Shortcuts
  • Accessibility of Specific Canvas Features
  • Accessibility of Third Party Integration 

For full details about Canvas accessibility and assistive technology interactions, view their Voluntary Product Accessibility Template Page.

Other Tools

If you course uses tools external to Canvas, check out the accessibility links listed by specific program or application on our Technology Tools page.
