New trainings on: Social Media Accessibility, Document Remediation Part 1&2, Digital Accessibility in Course Design, Zoom/Online Event Accessbility #UNCCAUSE22

Online/hybrid meetings have opened up access and eased the ability to participate immensely. However, it doesn’t mean that just because someone can zoom in, that they should. If you’re sick, you *can* stay home AND *not* zoom in.
At UNC the Digital Accessibility office is under their Information Technology Services #UNCCAUSE22

#mootglobal22 take-away 3/5: what matters most is how teachers teach. (Unsurprising.) An LMS is *a* useful tool in almost any teaching setting, but it matters how it is used.
E.g. prob. most teachers still have not studied a good online course. Name-check open.edu/openlearn/
