Instructional Strategies to Support Invisible Disabilities

Did you know that the majority of accommodation requests are for disabilities that are not considered apparent?

Imagine what it is like to struggle with a disability, but be afraid to request help for fear of judgment.

Fortunately, many strategies for supporting non-apparent disabilities are common pedagogical strategies. This workshop will discuss strategies to make your course more supportive of all learners and provide an opportunity to make a plan for implementing these strategies in your course.
