This article will describe why some course content might be flagged as potentially harmful and how to fix it.
Some moving media - such as videos or gifs - can cause seizures for certain people. Even some still images can cause this! To avoid unexpected harm to students, Ally will flag content that it recognizes as able to cause such a reaction.
When it does this, you will see a red pop-up that says "This media can induce seizures." You have two choices - you can either remove the file (which is recommended), or leave it there. If you leave the content, Ally will flag the content and alert students before opening the file.
