Wednesday February 12- important free webinar about a lawsuit trying to throw out a 50 year old #Disability Rights law in the United States. The law is section 504, talked about in the wonderful #CripCamp movie. Register here: dredf-org.zoom.us/webinar/regi.... More info in first comment.

Section 504 is a law that basically says you cannot discriminate against disabled people if you get money from the United States government. This applies to all sorts of public government entities: public schools, local governments, and so on. #a11y #accessibility

I am so excited that @habengirma.bsky.social is here!! One of the best autobiographies I have ever read - and she is an all around incredible human being! #EduSky #UDL #CommunAT #A11y #ATchat #UDLchat she is a must follow! Welcome Haben!!

Great idea. Even better - take the #AltTextChallenge and make sure each slide has alt text for the question/prompt text.

The real power of #UDL isn't that it is learner centered design. It's real power is that it is HUMAN centered design that validates and empowers everyone to contribute authentically and with agency. That small change in phrasing contains massive impact. #EDUsky #UDLchat

To meet the needs of ALL students, we must meet the needs of EACH student. Equity in education begins with recognizing variability and designing for it. #LeadInclusion #UDL #InclusiveEd #EdLeaders #EduSky

If I could do only one thing to shift learning in a school community, I would hang a big banner that reads: The barriers is in the design, not the learner. And no matter the discussion topic, I'd bring people back to this statement. It is the greatest design call to action I know. #UDL
