[Athen] Forgive cross postings – another shameless plug for Accessing Higher Ground ;-)

Hi all,

This is another shameless plug for Accessing Higher Ground international
technology conference in Denver November 17 – 21. I will be presenting a 2
day pre conference workshop on Adaptive Technology in Higher Education,
based on a professional growth course that I teach through AHEAD. Attendees
who complete the 2-day workshop will get a certificate of completion.

This course is not for sissies! It was originally a 16 week graduate course
which was condensed into an 8 week professional growth course, and now
condensed to a 2 day workshop! You will get more than your fair share of
tips, tricks, tools, links, dialogue, interaction, and a shared document,
replete with an enormous file of links to resources that you can go home
with and use for development on your own campuses.

*Key Takeaways:*

   -

   Explore a wide variety of adaptive technologies across disability areas,
   including strategies for neurodiverse learners.
   -

   Link AT tools to specific disability-related needs and adapt them for
   diverse student populations.
   -

   Build practical evaluation criteria for student and campus use.
   -

   Develop advising strategies for faculty, administrators, and campus
   staff to strengthen accessibility.
   -

   Deepen your understanding of relevant disability laws, policies, and
   performance indicators.

By the end of the workshop, you’ll walk away with a *clear, actionable
framework* for integrating adaptive technology into higher education
settings, plus an *extensive reading list* to support your ongoing
professional growth.

I love teaching this course. I would love to see as many of you there who
can come and who are interested in developing a campuswide adaptive
technology set up.  I hope to see you soon – well, in November at least!
