AEM for Inclusion session #2 with Jennifer SouthSession Description: This AEM session will review the meaning of accessibility, and look at why standard formats can create barriers for certain learners. In contrast, we will outline and explore the basic accessible formats. Ideally, educators would provide materials that their students can access, but when that doesn’t happen, learners need a solution. Additionally, some accessible formats may require the use of an assistive technology tool to allow the student to fully interact with the materials being presented. This session will focus on free or low-cost accessible technology tools available on a variety of devices and platforms. Having the right tool for the task can mean the difference in a student’s meaningful and successful participation in their education!

AEM Across the Lifespan session #6 | Gayl Bowser, M.Ed.Independent Consultant | Session Description: When students with disabilities are provided with print based educational materials in accessible formats, their ability to succeed in inclusive educational settings increases significantly. One-to-one technology options for students have resulted in environments where most of the needed resources to provide AEM are available. Yet without administrative support and agency guidelines, it is unlikely that Oregon’s classrooms will be able to provide the accessible learning environments that are mandated by federal and state laws. This presentation will discuss specific roles and actions that school administrators can take to ensure accessible learning environments for students who need accessible educational materials.
