Learn about Assistive Technology

The Office of Accessible Education (OAE) invites you to join us for “An Introduction to Assistive Technology (for Digital Access).”

Digital Access Specialist Cam Coulter will provide a brief overview of the tools that make digital content accessible to everyone.

We will learn about different types of disabilities and different categories of assistive tech that help people use computers (either for consuming content or creating it).

We’ll explore screen readers, dictation tools, voice access software, and more, and we’ll provide a brief demo of several tools.

When? Wed Feb 11^th 1 – 2 pm
Where? Viewing & Production Room A in the Learning Commons/Library (LCTCL 129)
Who is this for? Students, faculty, and staff who want to learn more about assistive technology. Please consider joining us whether you are looking for tools to use yourself or curious to learn about what others may be using.

A person reads an ebook on a computer. The text is magnified and settings for text-to-speech are open.

Assistive tech is essential for people with disabilities, but it can be helpful for everyone.
