About this module

You will review a number of approaches to equip students with technology skills and provide equitable access to students across the three Flexible Learning study modes. You will identify strategies and processes to create unit materials and tasks that are accessible to all students and that meet universal design guidelines for accessibility. You will plan and develop an accessible formative assessment task and feedback process that can be successfully delivered across all learning modes.
