Register here for morning sessions, or here for afternoon sessions. If you would like to attend both morning and afternoon sessions please register at both links! Who should attend? Join your colleagues and a panel of FSU students on June 29th to gain new knowledge about creating accessible digital content for everyone at FSU! Florida State University, in collaboration with the University of Washington (DO-IT Program), is sponsoring a group of seminars for the first time on our campus. These seminars are completely free and are designed to give you more understanding of what equal access and equal opportunity means to people with disabilities. The goal of these seminars is to equip instructors, course content creators, web developers, and web users with knowledge on the concept of universal access as well as inform about legal issues which surround accessibility. An accessible Web will help our students with disabilities more actively participate in society and our educational institutions. After attending, you will have a better understanding of the needs of many of our users and will be able to develop teaching strategies, create guidelines, and know where to locate resources to assist you in making your Web site accessible for all people. Different sessions will cover assistive technology, web access,
online learning, Blackboard, and instructional support. You will
learn about
free tools you can use to assist you and our students. This is
a great opportunity
to get up to speed on the universal design that is taking place
all over the country FOR FREE! Continental breakfast and lunch will be provided, but you must register now. Why wait? Make plans now to join us on Thursday, June 29, 2006 at the Turnbull Center! Contact Bea Awoniyi or Meagan O'Nan or call (850) 644-9566 with questions. |
