Accessibility Note: Section 508 regulations (36 C.F.R. §§ 1194.1 et seq.) require that electronic and information technology purchased or used by federal agencies must be accessible for use by persons with disabilities. With a course designed for distance education, the instructor needs to make provisions to accommodate disabled students in a comparable manner to traditional courses, such as ensuring that websites are accessible to screen readers for the visually impaired.
If any web-based course material is identified as inaccessible, to students with disabilities, it is the instructor’s responsibility to put the material in an accessible format in a timely manner. Technical support from ITS will be available if needed. See Distance Education Guidebook for further explanation, approaches, and available support.
