Abstract/Description

Ever wonder why a student might get “Modified Attendance” as an accommodation? Why would “Access to Instructional Materials” be appropriate for a student with a disability? Have you wanted to address a pop quiz but are not sure how to do so with a student’s accommodations? Do you think an accommodation is not appropriate for your class and wonder what your options might be? Join the Office of Learning Resources disability staff for a conversation about accommodations. We will be available to answer questions about why accommodations might be appropriate in the higher education setting as well as strategies for implementation of the accommodations. Submit specific questions in advance to disabilityservices@udayton.edu with a subject “Accommodation Conversation.”

Goals for Attendees

Identify ways to address disability accommodations and understand some of the accommodation process.
