Location: MC 2036
Facilitators: Victoria Feth and Christine Zaza
Description
In this session, attendees will learn how to use the UWaterloo Course Accessibility Guide to enhance the accessibility of their courses. Facilitators will introduce the Guide and then attendees will apply the Guide to their course(s) with facilitators and peers present to provide assistance and address questions as needed. By the end of this workshop, attendees should be able to use the UWaterloo Course Accessibility Guide to identify where their course(s) meets accessibility; identify gaps that they can easily meet; and identify where to get help to address gaps that require additional expertise.
Good teaching is accessible. Accessibility is essential for some, beneficial for all.
