Beyond making digital content accessible, it is important to implement accessibility practices in teaching.
Use Inclusive Teaching Strategies
- Classroom Activities: Use multiple means of representation, engagement, actions, and expressions in your classroom activities.
- Classroom Barriers: Learn about online and face-to-face classroom barriers.
- Course Materials: As you create or update course materials, identify and correct any that are improperly formatted, inconsistent, or disorganized.
- Host Inclusive Face-to-Face Meetings: Plan ahead to help everyone feel welcome, understand what is presented, and participate.
- Host Inclusive Online Meetings: Include complete meeting and accessibility information in invitations, use accessible technology, prepare to provide accommodations, assign an accessibility advocate, and send accessible follow up materials.
- Teaching with Access & Inclusion (TAI): Foundational information for teaching with access and inclusion.
- Teaching Resources: Guides for developing accessible and inclusive courses and class sessions in face-to-face, online, and blended modalities.
