Feedback: Practical Application
“I appreciated learning the laws and standards covered in module one, but being able to find useful tools and techniques, as provided by module two, was beneficial to me as an instructor.”

Feedback: It is Easy!
“After completing the two prior assignments in this module, I have realized how easy it is to make word documents accessible and how little time it takes. I feel more confident that I will be able to make my courses more accessible without spending a significant amount of time and feel bogged down.”

Feedback: It is Quick!
“I had an “ah, ha” moment when I made my syllabus more accessible. It really did not take much time and made me realize that I could quickly redesign the documents in my online course.”

Feedback: It took me 5 Years!
“After making Power Points for my classes for the last 5 years or so, this was the first time that I added alt text to the pictures. I don’t know why it hadn't occurred to me to do that before.”
We don’t know what we don’t know….

Feedback: Wow!
“Wow! What great exercises and a learning experience. If I had known earlier what I have learned in this workshop, it would have saved me an enormous amount of frustration and hours of instructional design/preparation overtime. Excellent workshop all around and structure of learning! I am looking forward to an enhanced course.”

The overriding idea driving the workshop was to establish a theoretical foundation for accessibility and then provide practical skill development for implementation.
