Episode description
As online learning designers we're often tempted to experiment with new functionality, but sometimes our enthusiasm for innovative approaches can create a barrier for users.
On this week's episode of the GoodPractice Podcast, eLearning Developer Michael Osborne and Learning and Development Advisor Mike Shaw join Ross G and Gemma to discuss their tips for creating accessible learning.
