Annotation: This web page is from the University of Denver’s Office of Teaching & Learning, and is under the broader heading of “Inclusive Teaching Practices,” which emphasizes the interdisciplinary nature of any liberatory pedagogy. The page provides definitions for common disability language and discusses accessibility for students with disabilities that may not be physically apparent. It offers specific strategies and methods for educators to undertake in the classroom, including assistive technologies and course design techniques, and a perspective on the importance of disability pedagogy.
