Where can I find resources for making distance learning courses accessible?
Printable Version
Distance learning courses may include web-based materials, videotapes and other multimedia, printed materials, video conferences, and telephone conferences. These courses should be accessible both to the students who use them and to the instructors who create them.
The best way to begin is to consult print and web resources for making distance learning materials more accessible to people with disabilities. You can find extensive resources at AccessDL, The Center on Accessible Distance Learning.
