Principle 1
Be Accessible and Fair
Will the students have difficulty accessing course materials or participating in any essential activities related to class?

Principle 2
Be Straightforward and Consistent
Are there any areas of confusion regarding course objectives, how the course materials are presented and/or goals evaluated?

•Read an element (row) of the rubric
•Analyze sample syllabus for that element
•Give yourself a rating and list any comments- Listen to your gut

Evaluate the Use of a Graphic
•What is the purpose of using the graphic?
•What does the graphic convey?
• Is the graphic necessary or is it used more as a decoration?
•How can the information be conveyed?
• Is the information provided somewhere else?

Principle 5
Provide a Supportive Learning Environment
Do students feel respected as individuals, welcome to express their thoughts, and able to explore new ideas? Do you make yourself available to answer questions & discuss issues?

Principle 6
Minimize Unnecessary Physical Efforts or Requirements
Are there any physical challenges in this course that can be removed? Are field trips, viewing films or creating recordings required? Are they accessible or are other options available?

Things You Can Do Immediately
• Design – Include a variety of activities that align with the outcomes and goals for the instruction.
• Delivery – Provide a variety of delivery methods to include lecture, projects, case studies, discussions, hands-on activities, etc.
• Materials – Arrange for accessible materials that include alt-text, captioning, transcripts, visual cues and can be accessed using screen and text reading programs.
• Environment – Be responsible for a welcoming and accessible environment that removes all physical roadblocks and provides opportunities to for students to express themselves and demonstrate knowledge.
