Proposal for Presentation

Accessibility is more than accommodating the blind so they can “see” and the deaf “hear”. According to Educause in the 2020 Student Technology report: Support the Whole Student, nearly half of the students with disabilities do not register with the institution for accommodations; as well as one in three students with disabilities do not have positive responses to how their university supports their needs through technology. Implementing just three manageable adjustments today in your courses can significantly increase the positive learning experience for ALL students, not just those needing accommodation.
