Facilitated by The Access Centre, Ryerson University Some educators cringe when they hear “student with a disability” or “duty to accommodate.” Questions arise about academic integrity and fairness. Presented by the Access Centre, this workshop will dispel myths and clarify facts about meeting your legal obligation to accommodate students with disabilities. Workshop attendees will learn about the various disabilities that challenge Ryerson’s Access Centre registrants; what to do when a student discloses they have a disability; and investigate some of the best practices for accessible delivery of your tutorials.
