Empowering Instructors: Mastering Accessibility for Inclusive Learning Experiences

on YouTube ↗01h 00m

" summary

Workshop argues that accessible learning must remove barriers, not only accommodate, and cites US data (~30% of adults report a disability) and the updated UDL 3.0 framework to justify concrete steps. Demonstrates tools (screen readers NVDA and JAWS, TTS like NaturalReader, speech‑to‑text/Dragon and Chrome voice typing, magnifiers, AAC apps Proloquo2Go/TouchChat, note capture tools like Fathom/Glean) and shows an UserWay demo plus a browser extension workflow. Provides a checklist and 24 resources via a shared Google Drive and runs a color‑blindness map exercise.
