How Faculty, IT Staff, and Others Contribute to Making Courses Accessible to All Students

Thank you

The pandemic shined a light on the inaccessibility of many online courses. The presenter, along with participants, will discuss how multiple stakeholders (faculty, teaching and learning centers, IT staff) can contribute to making a paradigm shift from designing courses for the average person to designing for all students and instructors, including those with disabilities. This webinar will address how to use universal design in higher education to promote accessible learning on campuses.
