How can EdTech help faculty empower students to create content while supporting accessibility initiatives?

In Episode Six of the Innovate and Educate podcast, we finish our exploration of administrator and faculty answers to the question: “How can EdTech help faculty empower students to create content while supporting accessibility initiatives?” Listen to Christine Lhowe, M.F.A., Associate Professor of Art & Design, as she explains how accessibility plays a role in creating teaching students to web design and user experiences communicate to populations with varied abilities. We will also hear from Lauren McFadden, Ed.D., who  talks about supporting future primary and secondary school teachers in preparing to meet the needs of all learners
