ACCESS-ed and UDE

The ACCESS-ed Project focuses on several campus interventions to improve the postsecondary education success of students with disabilities. However, as we know, the typical intervention models provide service only to students with declared disabilities. Thus, to address the fundamental reality that many students with disabilities do not declare their disability or may not have been diagnosed as having a disability, the ACCESS-ed Project includes an emphasis on Universal Design in Education. UDE also has the side benefit of making education more accessible for all students, including those students at risk, but without disabilities, such as English as second language students and even students without any educational challenges.

Universal Design in Higher Education  (PowerPoint Presentation)

New information and communications technologies can improve the quality of life for people with disabilities, but only if such technologies are designed from the beginning so that everyone can use them. Given the explosive growth in the use of the World Wide Web for publishing, electronic commerce, lifelong learning and the delivery of government services, it is vital that the Web be accessible to everyone.
