Description
In this session, attendees will engage in activities to help them make the most of the Accessible Teaching website with the goal of enhancing the accessibility of their teaching and courses. By the end of this session, attendees should be able to identify a place to start or continue their accessible teaching journey as well as relevant resources of support. They should also gain knowledge of accessible teaching in general and confidence in navigating the Accessible Teaching website for future endeavours. Please note, this session will use polls and discussion via the chat or mic in Teams.
Good teaching is accessible. Accessibility is essential for some, beneficial for all.
