- Consider your course syllabus for Fall, what are some steps you would take to make the materials more accessible?
- For example, if you are using .pdf files, how can you ensure that students with visual impairment are able to access the reading? Or if you are using an audio file (e.g. an interview recording), what choices can you make to ensure that students with hearing impairment can access the material?
