Overview:
The MSU Accessibility Policy (viewable at http://webaccess.msu.edu) is a source of worry for many MSU faculty, especially those teaching online and blended courses. This series will focus on how to evaluate and improve the accessibility of course content and what tools are available to help in the process. In addition to making content accessible, Brendan and Sean will discuss what to do if someone enrolls in your course and requests accommodation.
