It's the Law. It's Right. Teaching with Technology and Complying with the Americans with Disability Act In March, Durham Technical Community College hosted a conference entitled Creating an Accessible Course for distance learning administrators across North Carolina. Central Carolina Community College was represented there.The conference, while designed for distance learning directors, had a message valuable for all educators who integrate technology into their teaching. It is critical, for example, that teachers using websites for online instruction or to supplement traditional classroom learning ensure the content is accessible to all students. The Americans with Disability Act requires it. It's the law. And, of course, as educators, we know it's also right to equip all students for success. Topics at the conference included Fundamentals of and Designing for Accessibility, Selecting Accessible Online Content, Creating Accessible Content with Office 2010, and Creating Accessible Videos and Podcasts. Contact Bianka Stumpf for more information on resources for Creating an Accessible Course for Distance Learning
