Making Math and Science Content Accessible 

Mathematical and scientific content should be entered using accessible equation editors rather than as images.

Brightspace supports: 

  • MathML (preferred for screen readers) 

  • LaTeX 

  • Graphic Equation Editor 

  • Chemistry Equation Editor 

Since all math inputs in Brightspace are stored as MathML, screen readers can interpret and read them correctly when viewed in browsers that support MathML.
