Participants will learn how to recognize common PDF accessibility barriers, determine when a PDF is the right (or wrong) format for online learning, and use tools you already have—such as Microsoft Word, Accessibility Checker, and Ally Alternative Formats—to improve accessibility. The course also covers identifying image-only (scanned) PDFs, converting them to searchable text using OCR, and exporting PDFs correctly to preserve headings, tags, and bookmarks.

<p>Join Dr. Stina Soderling (Assistant Professor, MWGS) in a guided discussion of “Mutual Aid: Building Solidarity During This Crisis (and the Next)” by Dean Spade, which explores the importance of mutual aid, what it looks like, and how to do it. This book describes how mutual aid is a crucial part of powerful movements for social justice and offers concrete tools for how to work in groups, how to foster a collective decision-making process, how to prevent and address conflict, and how to deal with burnout.</p>
