Comment regarding Video: 1 of 3 (CC) "Universal Design in the Classroom" part 1

This video does an excellent job describing universal design in the classroom setting, especially as it relates to the instructor, technology, and classroom set-up. Some of the discussion regarding technology is no longer relevant, but there are still some relevant takeaways embedded among such. The discussion about classroom layout was particularly helpful.

"We cannot afford to let the issue of disabilities be simply an afterthought. We have a unique opportunity now, as industry pours billions of dollars into upgrading the communications infrastructure, to make sure that people with disabilities are not left behind. Now is the time. Accessibility of services and products for all Americans has got to be a design feature, not an add-on."
