Accessible by Design: Access in the Classroom

Monday, December 9, 2024 10:00to12:00

This workshop offers practical tips for increasing accessibility in teaching that instructors can implement while planning their courses. Instructors will discover that planning with accessibility in mind does not solely benefit students with disabilities, but provides support for a diversity of learners.

By attending this workshop, participants will be able to:

  • Identify barriers that students with disabilities experience in various instructional settings (e.g. lectures, conference, discussions, exams)
  • Explore ways to facilitate and promote equitable access to learning
  • Identify opportunities to enhance accessibility in their teaching practice
  • Locate available tools and resources to support accessibility at McGill

      Note that an Outlook invitation and Zoom link will be sent to participants in advance of the workshop.

      McGill University is on land which has long served as a site of meeting and exchange amongst Indigenous peoples, including the Haudenosaunee and Anishinabeg nations. We acknowledge and thank the diverse Indigenous peoples whose presence marks this territory on which peoples of the world now gather.
