Tips for writing alt text 

  • Focus on the important details: Start with the most important information first.
  • Be specific and concise: Describe the content and purpose of the image (e.g., “A bar chart showing revenue growth from 2020 to 2023 from fifteen million dollars to eighteen point five million dollars”)
  • Use an Alt text generator tool. Click here to access ASU Creator tool and tutorial.
