A good refresher module on creating inclusive content - liked it.

A quick module that helps you think about what you have already produced for online learning but also think about the little things that might be missing to make it more accessible to others.

Thank you

Module reminded me to include learners in their learning ie collaboration and feedback. These also increases independence in their learning journey

Excellent to base the learning here on criteria
Would have benefitted from more case studies

Good.

This 'practice' module is listed before 'principles' on the page listing accessibliiy modules, yet says it follows on from it.

In the video it sounds like the narrator is saying ‘assessable’ (i.e. capable of being assessed) when I think it should be ‘accessible’ - at least that is what it says in the transcript. Confusing.

completed

good

My digital resources are not all suitable for blind learners which is something I may have to consider in the future.

Some useful information but really need the links to help to understand how to fully utilise the apps or software available to teachers and learners.

some good links to other resources

Good ideas to reflect on .

Useful, but again, more ideas and suggestions would be helpful.

Bullet pints and pictures important

This module is succinct in explaining the content inclusiveness in practice.

Reduce the words and add them as notes to the slide.


Make the font smaller so it takes up less space and is less cluttered.


Information could be built-up over several slides instead.


Adding a narrative to make it easier to understand or revise after the class and provide a commentary on the content

Outline ideas as to how accessibility can be increased with a few examples. Format of the presentations need changing. Practice what you preach!

Interesting

Fine - Lots of useful information.

Fairly useful but fairly general information. Main text in light grey, I find not very clear to read

Highlighted simple changes which can be made to ensure accessibility.

Good

clear information with good examples.

The contact was very subjective - changes to be made would be very dependant upon the group level and those accessing it - there is no defined set of answers.

clear reminders of good practice

I liked this module.

Good

But do remember those with a learning needs who will have more complex additional need when accessing learning

I had a view on it but it wasn't quite what you were looking for.

Thia helped me to think about better approaches to accessibility

Repeat of previous one and put my answers in 10 times and still said incorrect. So clicked on all of them and they said wrong but feedback was my correct answers.

it is a good source of information to be able to refer back to

Bit misleading when I put answers in.

This module was useful in exploring the huge impact which how information is presented can have on how we scaffold learning for all learners, not just those with identified additional learning needs.

May be useful to add interventions for specific learning difficulties such as dyslexia - and language presentation for students with ASC.

Very useful information

Worthwhile to remind you of some of the basics about online content- particularly at the moment!

Thought-provoking module on design for accessibility, like the ideas on scaffolding learning with cues, clues and context.

Another module I enjoyed as I understood exactly what it was getting at. The problem I encounter when I am using this type of media is that I have not been trained on it and it is really a find out for yourself and therefore I do not utilise the app to its full potential.
Obviously time is at a premium when developing teaching materials and teaching tools and I find time is not allocated for these, what I would consider, essential, simple tasks.

Clear information

The example was helpful and recap table for principles of inclusive content. I need to check I have the digital skills to be inclusive.

Good resource

Good tool well presented

This module applied to the classes that I teach as all students have learning difficulties and one also has cerebral palsy and consequently has little use of her hands and is also wheelchair bound. I have been teaching SN students for 26 years so already use many of the strategies suggested within this module, although, some of my technology skills need addressing as I am not too familiar with adding sound files or video to online resources. Last year, I tried using V.L.E. with one of my groups and this works fine under supervision but after discussion with the students it was doubtful that they access this tool at home. The college has a vast amount of online resources which the students are aware of but some do not have the devices to access this from home and some do not have the motivation.

very good

Helpful resource to scaffold learning, keeping tasks simple, steering clear of "mono text" resources.

understandable options

A useful reminder.

Another good resource and reminder to take all learning styles into consideration when developing digital resources

Such a massive area it's a challenge to cover in a few minutes but this is a nice approach and exemplifies the accessibility benefits of flipping the teaching approaches, creating active learning tasks and involving disabled students in discussions. I guess the big issue for most practitioners is 'how long will this approach take' and 'what do I prioritise?'. Given those considerations there might be value in also exploring where an institution's digital vision and strategy is essential in supporting practice - but that would involve missing out something else important!

So important for us, educators, to use a wide range of media as teaching material, and not just lots of text. Cognitive overload will confuse learners. This module is a good reminder for us to pace and “scaffold learning with cues, clues and context.”

I found this resource useful as a reminder of the various ways that text can be reduced and refined to promote clarity and understanding in digital resources.

Creating inclusive content: Principles summary and activity were useful I thought.
