In addition to this incredible tool, we would also like to spotlight some resources created recently by fellow Apple Professional Learning Specialist, Julia Parker. Julia has put together '30 Top Tips for Accessibility Tips in Education’ in an easy to use interactive PDF, which links to guides and video tutorials to show how each feature works. Tap on the image below to be taken to the post in the Apple Education Community Forum where you can download a copy of these wonderful resources. Thanks Julia! 🫶🏻 | | | |
