Creating Access to Learning for Students with Disabilities Through Technology

There is more to creating access for students with disabilities than compliance with Title II standards. The question of access is woven into the dynamic relationship between your students and the learning activities you design.

This session introduces a practical framework for analyzing the task demands of learning activities and using technology to mediate access barriers. Through real-world examples, you will learn how to apply this framework in your classroom to better support student learning and achievement.
