In course design, it is essential to provide alt text for images that convey meaningful information. However, decorative images those that do not add context or value to the content do not require alt text. This approach ensures that screen readers focus on relevant information, enhancing the user experience for individuals with visual impairments. Alt text should be applied thoughtfully, ensuring it is only used for images that contribute to the overall course content and learning objectives.
