Announcement: Online Learning Accessibility Resources
UB will remain online for the Fall 2020 semester. Please view the university's Fall 2020 Plan Page for more information on UB's response to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic.
In order to best serve our students, DAS staff have created a page for Online Learning Accessibility Resources. Our guides and recommendations for faculty and staff cover a variety of topics including accessible electronic materials, note-taking, captioning, multi-sensory learning, and adaptive technology. DAS staff will update the resource list regularly.
If you have requests for our resource list or questions about educational access, please contact the DAS staff at das@ubalt.edu.
Disability and Access Services is committed to providing reasonable accommodations for students with documented disabilities and works to ensure access to all campus facilities and programs.
