Accessibility: A Civil Right

Vance Martin, Ph.D.
Campus Accessibility Specialist
Center for Online Learning,Research,and Service (COLRS), University of Illinois Springfield

When we hear the phrase “civil rights” it is often seen from the lens of racial equality within the United States, but this phrase now encompasses a larger social movement based on factors such as race, gender and sexual identity, and (dis)ability. In this presentation we will examine the history of disabilities within the United States, as well as its place within civil rights overall. This will set the stage for the federal laws concerning accessibility, and the role educators must play to support the civil rights of all their students.

Mapping Your Success: Universal Design for Learning

Zach Petrea
Associate Professor of English
Heartland Community College

With every new teaching fad that pops up, I struggle with the difference between my personal learning process and student learning processes. Often, I like an idea but it proves unworkable for students in real learning environments. However, using the UDL framework as a guide to designing your instruction and assessments it is possible to account for the natural variability in learners through accessible curriculum, authentic assessments, and greater student engagement. In short, following sound research in neuroscience UDL will allow you to intentionally design effective learning experiences which will reduce barriers for all students.

Accessibility compliance is a hot topic among higher education faculty these days. But attaining compliance can be a monumental task. There are some easy steps to getting started, though; and one is ensuring that your audio and video resources are accessible for all right from the start. In this session, we’ll cover some basic principles to consider when choosing multimedia content for your course as well as how to ensure that your own content is captioned and transcripted. Two colleges will share their processes, training programs, and best practices for their faculty.

Accessibility is an important consideration in Higher Education. Yet, there is no well laid out path for Colleges to take as they seek to ensure they are meeting Federal guidelines. In this session, accessibility champions at three Illinois Community Colleges (College of Lake County, Lake Land College, and Richland Community College) will discuss how their Institution has approached accessibility. Each school is at a different place in their journey, but the overall conversation will include first steps, tools used, where they are at in the process, and some tips and suggestions of best practices when working with faculty.
