Implications of Remote Learning for Access

This presentation focuses on how we can build on our sudden communal experience with remote learning to provide greater access going forward, as well as some potential areas of concern. This talk will focus on how this experience relates to the social model of disability, which is the idea that much of what we think of as disability stems from one’s surroundings. We can use remote learning as a powerful technical tool for access even after the COVID-19 crisis, but more generally, the creativity, understanding, and flexibility shown by our community during this time is a good approach to access overall.
