Make it Student Centered

    I had an interesting discussion from a participant from South Africa after the session. We discussed the useability and the necessity along with addressing learning styles to address ADA requirements. If you address the needs of the learner on one page the needs for ADA compliance will be addressed also. A student who has a visual disability will be able to access material that is audio, a student who is disabled physically and who can not use a mouse and will no be able to access what is in place for the kinetic learner but will be able access other available material and have the benefits of all material. So the class will truly be student centered.

    This was sent to me after the session I have included the write-up here under attachment tab. Thank you Jonny for sharing and adding to the presentation.

    Hey, Susan and Maggie. Here's the quick write-up I did just a few days ago on deep linking from the Lessons tool. I've just made a slight change to it based on Maggie's perfectly reasonable suggestion that we open a new window for the linked content. Hope I didn't mess anything up when I added that bit (I don't think I did, but if it doesn't work, please holler and I'll fix it). In any event, please let me know how it works for you. All feedback is welcome.

    Thanks for a stimulating presentation today, Susan!

    Best wishes,
    Jonny
