Highlights

The Impact of YuJa at State College of Florida

  • User-Conscious Design

    Faculty appreciated the user-friendliness of the platform, and how it easily fit into their existing workflows.

  • At-a-Glance Issue Viewing

    Faculty can clearly see if they are in compliance with color-coded icons and scores in a dashboard view, rather than checking through every individual instance in their LMS.

  • “Motivating” Course Dashboard

    The platform provides data that shows you where your institution started initially in its accessibility journey, and where you are headed.

The story

An accessibility solution for all

Learner Support
Accommodate Diverse Learning Needs

“The minute I went to the student view and was able to see [that] a Braille document could be generated and fed into a machine that read to a student that might not be able to see, that was just a huge revelation for me,” said Dawn Hale. “Think of how many people we could reach out to, to let them know that our institution can be accessible for every learner.”

  • Descriptive visuals

At-A-Glance Scoring
A Time-Saving Solution for Staff

“In our native LMS, our faculty would have had to click on every single instance that was inside of the LMS to be able to open it up to identify if there were accessibility issues. That was one of our biggest struggles,” Dawn said. “When we brought YuJa on, it was wonderful because all of the colors are on the outside. Everyone can see if they are already in compliance or if they need to remediate anything.”
