Understanding Access Methods and Designing Access Points

Inclusive education requires that all students can access the curriculum, not only in theory, but in daily practice. This course explores how educators can recognize and design for diverse access needs, including physical, sensory, cognitive, communicative, and cultural considerations. Participants will learn how to identify student access methods, reduce environmental and instructional barriers, and create multiple, meaningful points of entry into learning for all.
