This is the third conversation for Leading Practices for Improving Accessibility and Inclusion in Field and Laboratory Science: A Conversation Series.

The third conversation in the series will focus on specific aspects of access and inclusion for field-based research and education in STEM, including best practices, misconceptions, and barriers for establishing accessible and inclusive fieldwork. The event will bring together a group of scholars and leaders in the disability community in a live webcast conversation about these topics. Our speakers will discuss key questions, including: What can we do to make it safer for folks to disclose disability or to request field trip accommodations? What myths about how we conduct fieldwork need to be debunked to shift the culture of field-based education and research to be more inclusive? What are the some new tools, technologies, and creative approaches to implement accessible and inclusive fieldwork?

We enthusiastically encourage the public to share perspectives and to participate in the discussion. Prior to the conversation, we will share two pre-recorded keynote presentations to set the stage for the discussion. Those keynotes are available on the project website’s event page below. This event will be available for viewing and participation through Slido here.

A live transcriptionist and ASL interpreter will be present at every conversation. Additional requests for accommodations can be submitted during registration until February 4th, 2022.

For more information on this series can be found on the project website here.

Blind Students Fight for Accessible College Classes

(EdSource) – This Education Beat Podcast from 1/13/2022 features Roy Payan, a blind student who provides insight into his lived experiences navigating unintentional barriers at college.  Eventually Mr. Payan filed a complaint that may land his case before the U.S. Supreme Court.

In 2017, two blind students in the Los Angeles Community College District filed a lawsuit claiming that they and other blind students weren’t given accessible materials in math classes. The students say that without materials in braille or audio, or tutors to read the material out loud, the classes are almost impossible to pass, effectively barring students from transferring to a four-year college. 

California’s largest community college district is planning to appeal the case to the U.S. Supreme Court, arguing that federal disability rights laws don’t cover “unintentional discrimination.” What impact could this court case have on the rights of students with disabilities?

Guests:

  • Roy Payan, Plaintiff and Student
  • Carolyn Jones, Reporter, EdSource

    Writing Reference Letters for People with Disabilities

    (Inside Higher Ed) – Even just mentioning a disability can be a red flag, writes Michele Cooke, who offers some guidelines.

    Reference letter–writing season is upon us, and you may be wondering how to approach writing about the disabilities of students and colleagues you are recommending. Letters of reference are critical components of admissions, hiring and promotion. But because letter readers tend to read between the lines, even just mentioning a disability can be a red flag, as Amy Vidali, an associate professor at the University of Colorado at Denver, has noted.

    As a part-deaf full professor who has navigated her entire career with a disability, I’ve been on all sides of the desk. I’ve been the mentee cringing at the misrepresentation of my disability, I’ve been the mentor wondering how to frame my mentee’s skills in the best light and I’ve been the letter reader assessing strengths and weaknesses. Here, I offer some suggestions.

    You should never disclose someone’s disability without their approval. Even if someone has a visible disability, the letter readers may not yet have met your mentee.
