SXSW EDU 2019

Access for All. Are you sure?

Description:

All students deserve equitable access to a quality education. Few engaged in education will disagree with this statement, yet we continue to see significant gaps in student outcomes. We believe that an intentional approach to determining barriers and identifying access points, while maintaining high expectations, leads to success for all students. Session will demonstrate the process applied for students with disabilities, English Language Learners and students with complex communication needs.
