Get Everyone On Board! Technology, Accessibility, and Course Redesign

Technology is shifting how classes are taught. As classes are redesigned to take advantage of these new technologies and to integrate more active learning techniques, some students are being left behind. Improving access to course content and materials for students with both physical and learning disabilities is critical. Bring your experiences to this session to discuss barriers and best practices to ensuring accessibility for all students, both inside and outside the traditional learning space.

OUTCOMES: Achieve an understanding of barriers that students may experience, both physically and from learning disabilities, when technology is integrated into the learning process * Determine best practices to ensure that students can use all learning materials that are included in the course * Investigate strategies for educating and working with faculty on these issues
