The sample course: PSY 101
Introduction to Psychology, the course everyone works on at the workshop.
Its web page and documents have accessibility barriers in them on purpose:
finding them, and fixing them, is the day. Every file here is also in the
agent kit, in the sample-course folder.
This page itself is built to be accessible. The course files it links to are not, by design.

Check the web page yourself
The course announcement is a real web page at a real address, so the same checkers you use at work run on it.
- Open the course announcement.
- Run Accessibility Insights for Web, FastPass, or the axe DevTools extension, on that page.
- Compare what you find with its checker report above. They use the same engine, axe-core.
The documents work the same way: open the syllabus in Word and choose Review, then Check Accessibility. Step card 4 has the details.
Remember
Everything here is invented. No real student, course or record is in it, which is why it is safe to paste into any AI.
