AI & Accessibility
This page's practical guidance and examples are especially helpful for thinking of ways to use AI to create more accessible learning environments. In particular, I recommend the section on using AI to expand, not restrict class activities.
Accessibility means ensuring all learners, including students with disabilities and other challenges to learning, can access and engage with all course materials, activities, and assessments. Employing the Universal Design for Learning (UDL) can help make your course more accessible. UDL is a teaching approach and course design framework that works to accommodate the needs and abilities of all learners and can help eliminate unnecessary hurdles in the learning process. It’s important to ensure that your course materials can be used with a robust set of technologies to ensure that you are creating an equitable space for all learners.
