LLCC account geofencing

As a reminder, in order to improve security on our computer network, geofencing has been activated for all LLCC accounts. Geofencing blocks access to LLCC accounts outside of the United States. If you are traveling outside of the country and will need access to your LLCC account, please let the Help Desk know to have geofencing deactivated for the duration of your travel.

Most account attacks come from outside of the country. Geofencing is a good measure to block those attacks and reduce the number of compromise accounts.

Tech Tip: Digital Inclusion and Accessibility

Ensuring our digital content is accessible and available to everyone is crucial. A number of our colleagues will be training on how to build accessible files to enhance the availability of our digital information.

When creating documentation for digital publication, we should take into consideration several factors and plan for a universal design. It is not only considered best practice, but also the right thing to do. LLCC is required to conform to website compliance standards as found in the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG). The WCAG is an ISO standard and recognized as the go-to source for implementing digital accessibility.

What Is Inclusion?

To be inclusive means to embrace disability from the very beginning; from the earliest planning stages, to publication, to updates. It is important to note that one part of inclusion involves creating true accessibility, rather than simply providing accommodations. Accessibility should be built in.

Inclusive or universal design considers as many people’s needs as possible. Creating digital content with inclusivity, content should be accessible by a diverse range of individuals and designed to accommodate a variety of experiences and ways that individuals access it.

What Is Accessibility?

Accessibility is used to describe whether a product can be used by people of all abilities and making special considerations for people with disabilities.

People have a wide range of skills and abilities, so how people interact with technology varies greatly. For example, if you have low vision, it can be challenging to navigate a website that isn’t accessible. Similarly, following along in a meeting can be challenging if you have a hearing disability, or if you do not speak the same language as the person presenting. It is important for all products and devices to be designed with accessibility in mind so that people of all abilities can have an enjoyable and engaging experience.

Accessibility means having a place, environment, or event that is set up from the start to be accessible to all individuals. An accommodation is a change that is made so that a person with a disability can fully participate.

While accommodations will always be necessary in some capacity, universal designs and true accessibility lessen the burden of constantly needing to request and push for having access needs met.

Tech Tip: Add branching logic to your Microsoft form

Now that you have created a form to be used as a quiz or survey, you may find that some questions may not be relevant to all respondents. Rather than adding a n/a answer option, branching logic can be applied to any question within your form, even if you have added sections. See add sections to your form for details.

To access the Forms application, start by opening your Outlook – Office 365 web account. Click on the waffle icon (nine small boxes) in the upper-left corner. Select Forms, or if you do not see the application, select All apps. The forms that you have created, pinned as a favorite or that have been shared with you as collaborator are listed. Open the form you want to add branching logic to.

In a survey or quiz that branches, questions appear only if they are relevant to the respondent. If the questions do not apply, the respondent is redirected to a different set of questions or will skip them altogether.

  1. Add all questions to your form before you add branching.
  2. Select the appropriate question to open for editing.
  3. Select More settings for question … , and then choose Add branching.
  4. Select the drop-down arrow to the right of Next at the Go To option.
  5. Select the question or section that you want to branch to when this answer is chosen. When selecting a question or section, you are limited to one branch per answer within a question, and must be a question or section not yet completed by the respondent.
  6. Add additional branches to your form as needed.
  7. Select Preview at the top of the design window to see how branching works in your form on a computer or mobile device.
