What about accommodations?
All students benefit from applying basic principles of accessibility and by doing so it creates an inclusive learning environment. By prioritizing accessibility, it ensures a similar real-time experience for all students and supports accommodations.
Preparing for a journey requires mapping out a plan and making sure that we’re starting with the same information. Defining the basics helps take out some of the guesswork.
When it comes to accommodations versus accessibility, they can actually be in support of one another so it isn’t one competing with the other. By addressing accessibility first it’ll help a wide range of students. When that occurs, you could already be in alignment with an student’s Individualized Education Plan (IEP). Accessibility gives everyone a chance to have a similar experience in real time.
