Determining and arranging academic accommodations is a partnership between the student, 老师, 及无障碍设施协调员. The student requesting academic accommodations is an active participant in the interactive process to provide reasonable accommodations that provide an equitable opportunity to participate in, while not fundamentally altering the courses, 项目, 服务, 和活动.
学生的角色 in the interactive process is to discuss the impacts of their disability, provide information/documentation on an as-needed basis, and share what disability accommodations have worked in the past.
无障碍设施协调员的 role in the interactive process is to work with the students and their instructors to identify barriers to accessing the course, 程序, 服务, 或活动 and recommend reasonable accommodations that mitigate impact of the barriers but do not fundamentally alter the essential functions of the course, 程序, 服务, 或活动.
教师的角色 in the interactive process is to share their knowledge of the essential elements of the course or 程序. It is also 老师’s role to contact the Accessibility Coordinator if they believe that the recommended academic accommodations compromise the essential requirements of a course/程序 or fundamentally alter a course/程序.
Academic accommodations are individualized and intended to minimize the impact of a disability has had on your access to an educational setting. Some examples of academic accommodations are sign language interpreters, 延长测试时间, and preferential seating in the classroom.
