@karenraycosta I've been mulling this over for awhile. Last year at #ASSETS2019 Karen Nakamura said (paraphrasing here) some Universally Designed products don't work for disabled people. So what does it mean that they can't use it? Are they outside of the realm of humanity?
@karenraycosta So if we employ UDL in our teaching but then we're still left with disabled students who can't use our materials what message does that send? How are students internalizing it when faculty say they've employed UDL or a11y but yet they still can't access something?
@karenraycosta Oh oh and I recall at the same conference @StarFeuri mentioning that UDL initiatives on campuses could be (have already been?) used to deny further accommodations for disabled students on the basis that adaptations on top of UDL are unreasonable.
