Keep Teaching - Faculty Resources: Providing Academic Support for Students

Ideas to Consider

PLAN FOR HOW YOU WILL IMPLEMENT ACADEMIC ACCOMMODATIONS FOR STUDENTS WITH DISABILITIES

  • Ensuring accessibility of your course is essential for students with disabilities.
  • The most common academic accommodation is extended time for exams/quizzes. 
  • Ensure that all videos and multimedia used in your course (own videos and external sources) are correctly captioned. 
  • If you have students who require online content, contact SAS Services for support.

Technical Support

PLAN FOR HOW YOU WILL IMPLEMENT TECHNOLOGY IN YOUR COURSE.

  • Use existing tools and resources such as BlackBoard, Microsoft Teams, and KSU applications.
  • Be patient with technical support staff. They are working to transfer and modify many courses at the same time. Be realistic with your requests. 

If at any point you need assistance in the process, email keeponteaching@kent.edu. In your email please include the CRN and name of your course.
