Inclusive Learning Research Series
After a year gathering qualitative data through on-campus interviews and documenting findings in a blog series during the 2019 Ally Tour, the Ally Community has spent 2020 exploring quantitative usage and accessibility data mined through the Ally software. To shed light on Ally’s impact around the world, trends in digital content accessibility, and how people are using Ally on their campuses, we launched the 2020 Inclusive Learning Research Series. On this page, you can find recent data visualizations and whitepapers from the series.
