On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.

Blackboard Ally is now available as an integral part of Canvas. This session will focus on how course owners can use this tool to improve the accessibility of their courses. This practical session will cover the key accessibility issues most frequently identified by Blackboard Ally. You will learn simple, practical ways of fixing these issues and avoiding them in the future. The practical solutions will be introduced in the context of the specific needs of actual students with and without disabilities. This will allow you to prioritise accessibility.
The session is being held as part of Global Accessibility Awareness Day 2022. Find out more at ctl.ox.ac.uk/article/gaad-2022-thursday-19-may.
