Unsure where your responsibilities and role starts and ends when accommodating students with disabilities? Eager to learn more about strategies to help with creative accommodations solutions? Searching for additional support (and who to go to) when accommodation requests arise?
In this event, Accessibility Services will address common concerns around instructors’ work with accommodating students in their classes. This event also will examine what instructors can do to support students who request accommodations while keeping in mind the essential requirements of their courses. Examples of creative solutions to common accommodations and applications of these solutions in case studies will also be discussed. Accessibility Services will also share how best to contact them if additional support is needed. By the end of this session, instructors will have a better understanding of their role within the accommodations process.
