Is your virtual training inclusive and accessible? Does it account for learners with disabilities, low literacy, nonnative English, and other learning challenges? Traditional accessibility application focuses on asynchronous e-learning and concentrates mainly on vision and hearing challenges. But how do we increase accessibility in our synchronous virtual classrooms? This session will demonstrate how to account for a wide variety of learners in synchronous virtual classrooms, including those with disabilities, low literacy, or low proficiency in English. Accessibility tips, tools, and resources will also be shared that address various learning barriers, such as sensory, mobility, cognitive, literacy, and language challenges.
Learning Objectives:
Explore ways to apply accessibility before, during, and after virtual training courses.
Use tools to help increase accessibility in real time.
Discover ways to apply inclusion and accessibility principles to current and new training courses.
