The Purpose of this Site

This site has been created to help you design online courses which are effective and accessible for all students, including students with disabilities.

Universal Design & Best Practices

Where to Start

We suggest starting either at the Orientation for New Faculty Videos (about 9 minutes each) or with the Accessibility Checklist.
