This document summarizes Howard Kramer's presentation on teaching accessibility and inclusive design in higher education. It discusses research showing a lack of accessibility education in curricula and benefits of including it. A survey found students highly valued courses addressing universal design and accessibility. The presentation provides example curricula, resources for teaching these topics, and opportunities for collaboration like an open textbook and conference.

openSE – open educational framework for computer science Software EngineeringAndreas Meiszner
The openSE project brings together higher education institutions, open source projects and enterprises from different countries, from Europe and beyond, to collaboratively build up a common learning ecosystem.
The openSE framework is an open approach to computer science Software Engineering and aims at the continuous provision of up to date and relevant learning materials and opportunities that match students' interests and employers' demand; providing firms with better educated employees and allow learners to acquire an enhanced set of skills than traditional educational provision does. The openSE framework will be open to any type of learner: students of partnering universities, learners from the enterprise field, or 'free learners' outside of any type of formal educational context.

Pathways to Learning: Open Collaboration to Support the Online Pivot Robert Farrow
This presentation reports results of a recent open education research collaboration between The African Council for Distance Education and The Open University (UK). Pathways to Learning: new approaches in higher education (OpenLearn, 2020a) hosted two free professional development programmes for university lecturers, instructional designers, professional staff, and managers who share responsibility for providing quality distance and online learning.
• A Teacher Educator programme, Skills for 21st Century Learning and Teaching (OpenLearn, 2020b)
• A Tertiary Educator programme, Take Your Teaching Online (OpenLearn, 2020c)
The courses ran over six weeks between 13th July and 20th August, 2020, and was contextualized by a rapid rollout of online learning during the Coronavirus pandemic. The programmes combined a course of study using OER materials with supplementary activities including a total of 12 webinars and interactive events alongside use of new platforms created by The Open University’s Institute of Educational Technology: nQuire (Herodotou et al., 2018) and Our Journey (Coughlan et al., 2019).
Key findings:
• The pandemic led to a substantial shift in teaching across Africa and a requirement to better understand and gain experience of online learning. Change is likely to persist post-pandemic, although infrastructure and cultural barriers are reported.
• The project surveys, interviews and the data generated through interactions that occurred in the programmes explores challenges and opportunities for online and blended learning across the African continent and globally.
• The evaluation data provides evidence that the programmes led to important understanding of course design and confidence in online facilitation for a large majority of those who took part in them.
• There is evidence that the programmes built confidence, particularly through the experiences of these educators themselves learning online with well-designed materials, and engaging with platforms and experts.
• There is evidence that each of the elements and activities were appreciated by some learners. The open courses were seen as most useful alongside some webinars. Community events and forums added substantial value to these.
• The flexibility offered in the programmes led to different behaviours. Many aimed to complete all the available activities despite time pressures and other barriers. Some were unable to attend live events so recordings were appreciated.
• Given the courses were free to join and many educators faced barriers and pressures, retention figures were very positive with around 66% of those who took part in the first week completing the rest of these programmes.
• Assessment, Open Educational Resources (OER), and understanding of technologies that can be used for online learning and learning design were areas that learners reported as being particularly valuable.

California Community College Faculty Motivation and Reflection on Open Textbo...Una Daly
Interviews were conducted with twelve faculty members at community colleges in California who adopted open textbooks in their teaching practice for one academic term or longer. The interviews queried faculty on motivation to undertake the adoption, pedagogical considerations, student savings and feedback, and support from other campus stakeholders.
Faculty were asked how their teaching and student learning was affected as a result of adopting an open textbook in their course. Specifically they were asked if they were collaborating more with other faculty members and whether they were now using a wider range of instructional materials in their courses. With regards to student learning, they were asked if they believed that student learning had improved or whether student retention had improved as a result of the adoption of an open and free textbook. Any unanticipated outcomes that had resulted from the adoption either in their own practice or with students was also queried.
In addition to the faculty and students, other stakeholders on campus are often involved in the decision and process to adopt an open textbook. College initiatives or pilot programs to increase access and equity were sometimes the instigators for making the change and other times it was strictly a faculty decision. Library, instructional design, and bookstore staff were other stakeholders who played roles in the adoption process.
Attend this presentation to better understand the motivations of college faculty who adopt open textbooks and how it affected their teaching practice. Hear about the challenges they encountered and any unexpected outcomes. Learn what students had to say about using open textbooks in the classroom and how it affected their learning and ability to be successful.
Starting where we are, moving through changes open education is bringing at institutional, national, regional and international levels, and how we can continue to strengthen open education and its positive impacts

The Student-Inquirer Identity During the Master Thesis in an Online UniversityAngelos Konstantinidis
When students are conducting their research project as part of their studies, they can be better prepared for the societal and professional challenges of the future. This study contributes to the research of the inquirer identity by elaborating a model for the assessment of student-inquirer identity skills in light of the development of a master thesis in an education-related field in an online university. The model presents student-inquirer identity as a dynamic multiplicity of ten skills related to the five phases of the practice of inquiry (search and focus, understand and explore, design and implement, interpret/evaluate and reflect, write and present). Based on the model, a questionnaire that measures students’ inquiry skills during the development of the master thesis was constructed. The questionnaire is comprised of ten sub-scales with 42 Likert-type items in total. 154 students of the Universitat Oberta de Catalunya responded to the questionnaire. Findings revealed that, overall, online students develop inquiry skills to a moderate extent while conducting their master thesis.

Teaching Accessibility and Inclusive Design in Higher Education Curriculum: B...Howard Kramer
In 2015 tech firms such as Yahoo, Facebook, Dropbox and LinkedIn announced that they will develop standard language that lets applicants ‘know that having accessibility knowledge is "preferred" to land a job. Come to this session to learn how why and how you should include accessibility and inclusive design topics in tech, media and computer science courses.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

9. Why the Gap?
•Post-secondary IT programs update their
curricula every 4 to 5 years
•Curriculum standards boards – late in
adding accessibility as a component
• Association of Computer Machinery’s (ACM) –
added accessibility only in 2017
• ABET – just recently added accessibility
10. Why the Gap?
•Shinohara, Kawas, Ko and Ladner (2017) –
surveyed 1800+ faculty in Information
Technology & Information Science fields
• most critical barriers to teaching accessibility
• clear and discipline-specific accessibility
learning objectives
• the lack of faculty knowledge about
accessibility
• difficulty recruiting persons with disabilities
• difficulty engaging students
12. Survey Overview
• Target audience: Current students or recently
graduated students (up to 3 years) who have
taken tech, design, computer science or media
design courses
• Distribution: email invite sent to faculty at
colleges around the country to pass along to
programs and schools
• First round: beginning of the year
• Completed responses – first round: 88
• Second round: February to April – 114 total
14. 4. Were there topics related to Universal Design
and/or accessibility for persons with disabilities
addressed in a college-level course you completed?
15. 5. Please tell us the reasons why you did not take
any classes that addressed Universal Design or
accessibility topics
16. 6. Would you have been interested in taking
courses with these topics if they were offered?
17. 8. Was the primary focus of the course Universal
Design and/or accessibility or were these topics a
component of a course with a broader scope?
18. 9. On a scale of 1 to 5, with 1 indicating “no value” and 5
indicating “crucial,” please rate the usefulness of taking a
course with topics that included Universal Design and/or
accessibility.

Design or accessibility that you found to be particularly
valuable?
31. SurveyTakeaways
• May be a significant number of students interested in
Universal Design and accessibility topics but unable to
take courses
• At least based on the respondents who took this survey,
courses with these topics are highly valued.
• Colleges and universities would likely find an enthusiastic
response if they offered more courses with these topics.
• Including courses with these topics has notable work or
career benefits.
• For those teaching courses, the responses provide
guidance on what topics or class activities students find
the most valuable.
