Abstract

Course accessibility is a priority in higher education, particularly in the design and delivery of digital learning experiences. Proactively addressing accessibility as part of online and blended course design meets the needs of all learners, including those in the margins. Inclusive design for online and blended courses connects the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) and Universal Design for Learning (UDL) framework in order to address learner variability as an intentional part of course design. Inclusive design fosters expanded options in the ways that learners access learning materials, engage in learning experiences, and demonstrate the knowledge and skills they have learned. This paper describes practical applications of WCAG and UDL for the design and facilitation of inclusive online and blended courses in the post-secondary setting.
在线和混合课程的包容性设计
课程的可访问性是高等教育的优先事项,特别是在数字化学习体验的设计和交付方面。主动将可访问性作为在线和混合课程设计的一部分,满足所有学习者的需求,包括那些处于边缘的学习者。在线和混合课程的包容性设计将Web内容可访问性指南(WCAG)和通用学习设计(UDL)框架联系起来,以解决学习者的可变性,将其作为课程设计的一个有意组成部分。包容性设计促进了学习者获取学习材料、参与学习体验以及展示所学知识和技能的方式的扩展选择。本文描述了WCAG和UDL在设计和促进高等教育环境中包容性在线和混合课程方面的实际应用。
