Recently, I participated in a SLOAN-C Online Workshop on “Enhancing Your Course Accessiblility the Easy Way.” The online workshop was fantastic and I was able to get some great resources to share with you or your students.

You can view all of the resources I have tagged under “accessibility” in my Delicious Social Bookmarking account at: http://delicious.com/lpirinelli/accessibility. And, I updated our NCCC Easy Guide to Accessibility Lesson with these resources.
If you have any questions, please contact me.
Have a great day!
