SUMMARY:Design for All: Advancing Accessibility Together
DESCRIPTION:What if everything you thought you knew about accessibility was only the beginning? Too often\, when we talk about accessibility in learning\, the focus often lands on what one person can do. But accessibility at scale isn’t a solo effort. It’s a shared responsibility that requires alignment across teams\, tools\, and processes. \nIn this session\, you’ll meet Sarah Mercier\, editor and author of Design for All Learners: Create Accessible and Inclusive Learning Experiences. She will unpack universal design through the lens of her own journey\, from building a foundation in digital accessibility to uncovering the hidden challenges and opportunities that reshaped her design mindset and approach. \nTogether\, we’ll explore how shifting from individual action to collaborative strategy builds more sustainable\, scalable accessibility. You’ll discover practical ways to support and advance your organization’s accessibility maturity\, foster cross-functional accountability\, and design learning experiences that are inclusive from the start. \nYou’ll leave with a fresh perspective on accessibility\, inspiring you to go beyond compliance and design with empathy\, innovation\, and positive impact. \nAs a result of this session\, you will: \n\nAssess where your organization stands in accessibility maturity.\nDiscover facts that challenge the assumptions and misconceptions that often create barriers to access.\nPrepare for change with one thing you can do right now to advance accessibility an inclusion in your own work.

SUMMARY:Accessibility: How Can Technology & Human Insight Support All Learners?
DESCRIPTION:Join Sarah Mercier\, CEO\, Build Capable for a University of Massachusetts Amherst panel discussion\, September 23\, 20205 from 2 to 3:30 pm ET. Register for the event. \nAbout this IDEAS Seminar Series:\nThis event is part of the IDEAS Seminar Series – a growing and ongoing schedule of seminars which will explore areas such as multimedia creation\, online course development\, and strategies for fostering student engagement. \nAccessible course design enables students to devote their time and energy to real learning\, rather than slogging through decoding materials—or missing out entirely. While technology can help\, true accessibility depends on instructors’ subject-matter expertise and empathy for the learner experience. In this IDEAS Instructional Design seminar\, we’ll explore how accessibility benefits everyone\, demonstrate ways to combine technology tools and human knowledge to achieve this aim\, and show how individuals can make meaningful improvements right away. Key discussion topics include: \n\nWhat is one change instructors can make today that can significantly improve accessibility in their courses?\nWhat are common accessibility pitfalls and how can instructors avoid them?\nWhat happens to student engagement when we add accessibility measures?\n\nWhether you’re a faculty member\, instructional designer\, or learning technology specialist\, this seminar will provide actionable insights and strategies to help you create accessible courses that drive student success through thoughtful\, barrier-free course design.

SUMMARY:L&D on a Shoestring Online Conference
DESCRIPTION:Effective eLearning experiences don’t necessarily have to come with a hefty price tag.
