We will also discuss the legal considerations that govern our institution in terms of disability access, as well as faculty rights and responsibilities. Lastly, we will include some strategies of Universal Design of Instruction that faculty can consider implementing to meet the diverse learning needs of all students in their classrooms. Participants should leave feeling more aware of the needs of students with disabilities, the resources offered on campus, and empowered to make changes in their own classrooms to improve the accessibility of their courses.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">\u00a0<strong>Light refreshments will be served.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>This event is sponsored by the Center for Faculty Development.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0Working with Students with Disabilities: Legal and Practical Considerations for Faculty \u00a0Thursday, September 29th 10:00 \u2013 11:30 a.m. Faculty Lounge, University Center Michael Taylor, PhD, Associate Professor of Political Science&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3122,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[16,37,36,9,18,38],"class_list":["post-134","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-events","tag-center-for-faculty-development","tag-disabilities","tag-dss","tag-faculty-development","tag-faculty-events","tag-students-with-disabilities"],"post_mailing_queue_ids":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/blogs.shu.edu\/centerforfacultydevelopment\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/134","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/blogs.shu.edu\/centerforfacultydevelopment\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/blogs.shu.edu\/centerforfacultydevelopment\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/blogs.shu.edu\/centerforfacultydevelopment\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3122"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/blogs.shu.edu\/centerforfacultydevelopment\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=134"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/blogs.shu.edu\/centerforfacultydevelopment\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/134\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":135,"href":"http:\/\/blogs.shu.edu\/centerforfacultydevelopment\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/134\/revisions\/135"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/blogs.shu.edu\/centerforfacultydevelopment\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=134"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/blogs.shu.edu\/centerforfacultydevelopment\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=134"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/blogs.shu.edu\/centerforfacultydevelopment\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=134"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
