Accessible Pedagogy Conversations (Spring 2025)

Accessible Pedagogy Conversations (Spring 2025)

Hosted by the Center for Teaching and Learning (CTL), the Disability Cultural Center (DCC), Disability & Access (D&A), and the Digital Accessibility Center (DAC).

Join us each Wednesday this spring semester from 12-1 PM on Zoom for Accessible Pedagogy Conversations. This informal, peer-directed space is open to anyone interested in teaching and learning who hopes to share questions, strategies, and recommendations regarding accommodations and inclusion in learning environments. With the support of CTL, DCC, DAC, D&A, Texas Wellbeing, and Library Services staff members, we will collectively explore new topics each week to enhance accessibility for all instructors and students. We hope to see you soon!
