Accessibility requires action

A story about the critical role faculty play in ensuring accessibility for students with print disabilities appeared in the December 6 edition of Brief. The story profiled a University of Minnesota senior with low vision who works with Disability Services to convert course texts to an electronic format he can use.

Now is an excellent time to update the Course Guide, a system maintained by ASR, for spring 2012 courses. If a syllabus is included with the description, it gives Disability Services enough time to convert course texts for students for the semester.

Instructors can log in from the faculty Course Guide web page, enter a course description, upload a recent syllabus, or link to an existing public website.
