SDD21: A Visual and Accessible Syllabus for You

Hours: 1

The syllabus communicates critical information students need to revisit throughout the semester. This presentation provides an overview of how an accessible syllabus development project was conducted to produce a department-wide used accessible document. This presentation will also offer tips on developing an engaging, visual and accessible, student-centered syllabus document.

A participant walks away with:

  • A visual and accessible syllabus template to customize for their own use.
  • A job-aid document for how to customize the syllabus template.
  • A document of references and resources related to creating accessible documents.
  • A PowerPoint "job-aid" file for how to customize the provided syllabus template.

He was recently awarded his Digital Accessibility Certification: Instructional Design track certificate from the Texas Distance Learning Association.
