Kathleen Stone
Empire State College
2015
Tier Three
Amount of Award:$52,600.00
Creation of a MOOC to guide creation of all educational content to be fully accessible and ADA compliant.
The course provided training on creating and facilitating fully accessible educational experiences to students. Educators who completed the training should be able to create and revise courses, websites, and other educational materials with all students in mind, regardless of their ability or disability levels. As a result, the hope is to decrease risks of possible student drop-out for the reasons of inability to comprehend the material or complete required assessments.
