YuJa Panorama DocHub for Faculty and Staff

YuJa Panorama’s DocHub is an online workspace for checking and improving document accessibility. It is designed for faculty and staff who do not use Canvas and need a separate place to upload and review files outside of a Canvas course.

• With DocHub, users can upload files such as PDFs, Word documents, and PowerPoint presentations to evaluate their accessibility.
•  After a file is uploaded, Panorama scans it and provides an accessibility score, a detailed issue report, and guidance to remediate issues.
• DocHub can also generate alternative user-friendly formats such as audio, ePub, or Braille

To get started, log in to Panorama using your UTM account and open DocHub.

Key Features

• Accessibility Scoring Reviews uploaded files and identifies formatting problems or accessibility barriers.
• Remediation Guidance Provides instructions for fixing accessibility issues.
• Alternative Formats Converts documents into accessible formats for students, faculty, and staff.
• Cloud Storage Lets users store and organize files and folders in one central location.

YuJa Verity Check List

If your course uses YuJa Verity for proctored quizzes or exams, a little prep goes a long way. 

Here's what to check before test day:

1. Install the extension. Students need the YuJa Verity browser extension installed before they can take a proctored quiz. Already have it? We recommend uninstalling and reinstalling due to a recent update.
2. Authenticate and check the desktop piece. Once the extension is installed and authenticated, confirm that the Lockdown Browser desktop application is also downloaded.
3. Activate Verity before the quiz. Click YuJa Verity on the left-hand navigation to activate it before attempting the quiz.
4. Use a supported browser. Chrome (preferred) or another supported browser is required.
5. Skip Chromebooks, iPads, and mobile devices. YuJa Verity will not function on these devices. A laptop or desktop computer is required. 
6. Make sure students are NOT using the Canvas App.

YuJa Verity Faculty Reminder

We highly encourage creating a practice quiz at least a week before a proctored quiz or exam. This gives students time to work through any tech issues before it counts.
