Common Issues & Suggested Resources
While there are a great many resources for learning about accessibility, here are a few that can get you started:
- The Digital Accessibility Committee (DAC) is comprised of members who have been working on accessibility at MSU Denver for more than 10 years. Anyone with questions about accessibility are more than welcome to reach out to any of our members for answers or resources.
- The Instructional Accessibility Group has a number of resources freely available. While developed specifically for faculty as they design their courses, much of the content applies to many areas outside of instruction.
- MSU Denver is also an institutional member of the International Association of Accessibility Professionals (IAAP), which affords us access to a number of webinars and communities relating to accessibility topics. To sign up for an account:
- Faculty can contact Zach Clark, [email protected]
- Staff can contact Ione Priest, [email protected]
Students should contact the Access Center for all academic accommodations.
MSU Denver Employees should visit the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) page on the Human Resources Intranet site and complete the “Request ADA Information” form.
Contact the Center for Teaching, Learning and Design (CTLD), which can help with inclusive teaching, adult learning theory, instructional design and instructional strategies like Universal Design for Learning.
Presently, the university does not have a designated individual or department for determining the accessibility of tools and software. As we work to fill this gap, you are welcome to contact any of the DAC members with questions you have.
Presently, all university employees are responsible for ensuring the content they create is accessible. We strongly encourage use of the IAG guides and resources, YuJa auto-captioning options, and Web Author Resource SharePoint Site, just as a few points to get started.
As we work to fill this gap, you are welcome to contact any of the DAC members with questions you have.
