Season 2
Episode 3
Moodle
For millions of learners, a missing caption or a low-contrast screen is more than a glitch—it’s a barrier. In this episode, Shalimar is joined by Moodle accessibility specialists Jun Pataleta and Carli Cockrell to discuss why accessibility is a fundamental right, not a luxury.
We dive into the Moodle accessibility toolkit, and discuss the power and benefits of Moodle integration partners Brickfield and ReadSpeaker. We also cover how AI is changing the game for transcripts and summaries.
From "Spoon Theory" and personal journeys to the practical magic of the POUR principles (Perceivable, Operable, Understandable, Robust), we explore how designing for the few benefits everyone.
