How and Why to Host Accessibility Cafés
14 December 2023
Learn About Working with STEM Faculty on Increasing Accessibility and Universal Design.
Informal results of the “Accessibility Café” pilot project indicate that interactive sessions can be a promising tool for building faculty skills for enhancing the accessibility of their course materials. Learn how to host these guided, department-focused events, where faculty gather with colleagues to learn about and fix low-level accessibility issues in their course materials. Faculty leave with the know-how to continue making incremental progress and feel more confident in continuing to make fixes on their own. The Accessibility Café framework can be easily adapted for multiple focal topics in accessibility, universal design, and other inclusive teaching practices.
