As the term starts and as Universities cope with balancing safety requirements and delivering on the education, students with disabilities are going to be impacted.
The Disability Support Team will have to be there to support the students as so many things are changing. So how do we ensure that the team can be effective and deliver on the solutions.
- Ensure the Disability Support Team is available to support the students to navigate through all the changes. This is often disorienting for the students until they understand where and how they can get the needed support.
The Disability Support Team should be driving this communication at this time.
- Identify areas that external resources can support which are time consuming. This will give relief to your team so that they can focus on supporting students.
Providing accessible E-texts, Creating accessible textbooks, image descriptions, captioning can be easily outsourced so the Disability Support Team can support on the core areas.
- Find strategic partners who can support while providing quality and cost effective solutions along with the flexibility based on the students requests.
