What to Expect in this Showcase

In this session, the instructor will share her experience designing a multidisciplinary two-course package that showcases accessibility and engaged learning. Course topics of accessibility and carework were mirrored in course design. Community-engaged learning personalized disability care policy and caregiving practice through reflective relationship building. Topics to be covered include:

• Using Perusall to center disabled voices, deepen student preparation, and provide flexible engagement. 
• Authorizing students to become creators of accessible information.
• Creating small groups called bird flocks to simulate carewebs that accomplish class activities.
• Structuring community engagement through reflective relational logs, a field trip to the Momentum partner agency, attendance at the Ability Expo, and movies supported by the library mini-grant program.
