"Accessibility" request students

Why can only instructors get access to the conversion tool of PDF or document, changing it into the alternate download form of mp3 or audio file?

Hello @BRENTTONHANSEN,

From the image you shared, it looks like your institution is using the third-party tool Ally. It may be that your Canvas admins have set the alternative formats to only be available to instructors, but I do not actually see that as a choice in the Ally configuration (at least at my institution). How do you know that the alternative formats feature is not available to students? Did somebody share a screenshot with you of the feature not being there for them?

Best,

James
