important aspect of inclusive education. Adherence to accessibility standards can make a significant difference in the ability of students with disabilities to participate fully in their classes and understand course content. By providing materials in a format compatible with assistive technology and following best practices for design and delivery, instructors can help remove barriers that might otherwise prevent students with disabilities from fully engaging with course content. This not only benefits individual students, but also creates a more inclusive learning environment for all students, which can enhance the overall learning experience for everyone in the class.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>ITS Student Employees have created a few videos and supporting documents to help faculty preparing their materials for improved accessibility. Faculty may use these resources freely.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/questromworld.bu.edu\/tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2023\/07\/QST-ITS-Accessibility-Memo.docx\">QST ITS Accessibility Memo<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/questromworld.bu.edu\/tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2023\/07\/Questrom-ITS-Accessibility.pptx\">Questrom ITS Accessibility Powerpoint Template<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n<div  class='hr av-lgglsn92-48ff513ea098bb58ecb2f235de486f2d hr-short  avia-builder-el-6  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_codeblock  hr-center'><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div><br \/>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-xhuu6o-006ed072efc9c02adbb765a267319690\">\n.flex_column.av-xhuu6o-006ed072efc9c02adbb765a267319690{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-xhuu6o-006ed072efc9c02adbb765a267319690 av_one_full  avia-builder-el-8  el_after_av_one_full  avia-builder-el-last  first flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  column-top-margin'     ><p><div  class='hr av-vf0v5s-fe37abb532893e5750c535f227cc78af hr-short  avia-builder-el-9  el_before_av_codeblock  avia-builder-el-first  hr-center'><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div><br \/>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"class_list":["post-6080","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
