Description
This session at the 2022 SIMIODE EXPO introduced participants to ISKME's STEM OER Accessibility Framework: A Practical Guide for Curators and Authors of STEM Open Educational Resources. The framework was developed to align with principles of open education, Universal Design for Learning and W3C's POUR framework; the session discussed how those frameworks relate to developing accessible STEM learning materials.
During the session attendees explored the STEM OER Accessibility Framework, examples of accessible STEM OER, and discussed strategies for using the guidebook to evaluate and improve learning materials through a lens of OER accessibility.
