📋 STEP BY STEP

Here’s how you can use Change Agent to conduct accessibility and inclusion audits and ensure that materials and programs are inclusive and accessible.

Step 1: Gather Materials and Context

Collect all relevant materials, such as documents, images, videos, and program descriptions. Provide context about the intended audience, purpose, and goals of the materials or programs.

Step 2: Upload Materials to Change Agent

Upload the gathered materials to Change Agent. If the materials are in a digital format, you can copy and paste the text into the prompt window. For non-text materials like images or videos, provide a detailed description of the content.

To upload text-based materials:

• Copy the entire text
• Paste it into the Change Agent prompt window

For non-text materials:

• Describe the content in detail (e.g., image descriptions, video transcripts)
• Paste the description into the Change Agent prompt window

Step 3: Prompt Change Agent to Conduct an Accessibility and Inclusion Audit

Ask Change Agent to analyze the uploaded materials for accessibility and inclusion. Use a prompt like "Conduct an accessibility and inclusion audit on the provided materials" or "Analyze the attached document for inclusive language and accessibility features."

Step 4: Review and Revise

Review Change Agent’s analysis and recommendations. Ask follow-up prompts to clarify any concerns or request additional suggestions. Revise the materials based on the feedback, ensuring that they are accessible and inclusive.

Example follow-up prompts:

"What specific changes can I make to improve the accessibility of this document?"

"How can I rephrase this sentence to use more inclusive language?

Step 5: Finalize and Implement

Once you have revised the materials, finalize them for distribution or implementation. Use Change Agent’s analysis to inform future content creation and ensure that all materials meet accessibility and inclusion standards.
