About the event:

Mathematics forms the basis for a host of applications which build the foundation of our modern life. The 2010 Equality Act means that mathematics should be accessible to all students who wish to explore this beautiful science at university level, and the 2018 Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) Accessibility Regulations 2018 reinforces that digital content should be fully accessible to all learners.

The workshop aims to bring together individuals to share current best practice in making mathematics accessible. It will focus on preparing educational resources for students with visual impairments, students with dyslexia or autism, and all other students who will benefit from accessible lectures, virtual learning environments and tutorial support.

This one-day workshop is part of the IMA & RSS Higher Education Teaching and Learning Series 2020; participation is free and open to all those working in the higher education sector.
