[VPAAEtal] Faculty Invitation to Participate - UA Limited Edition Initiative

[Academic Affairs]

Faculty,

 

The Faculty Center for Teaching with Technology (FCTT) utilizes a
multi-faceted approach to assist faculty with applying universal
accessibility standards in their courses. This multi-faceted approach
includes the following:

  

1.       Caption new videos produced in the FCTT recording studio.

2.       Team design/redesign online courses utilizing a universal
accessibility checklist.

3.       Review online courses on-demand utilizing a universal
accessibility checklist.

4.       Train faculty in the captioning of videos and use of universal
design standards.

 

The fifth facet is a special initiative aimed at incorporating universal
design standards in existing online courses and related
videos/presentations. As a faculty member teaching a fully online
course, you are invited to participate in this "UA Limited Edition
Initiative."  An overview of the initiative is attached which shares the
responsibility of the faculty member and the responsibility of the FCTT.
