Blackboard Helps Make Digital Learning Materials More Accessible

Blackboard Inc. today announced that Blackboard Ally is now available for multiple learning management systems used by K-12 school districts.

Blackboard Ally is an accessibility solution that helps make digital class content in a learning management system (LMS) more accessible for all learners. It is currently available in the latest release of Blackboard Learn with the Original experience, as well as Moodlerooms, Moodle, and Instructure Canvas. It will also be available for additional platforms in the future.
