Disponible en français dans EDUQ.info sous le titre "Ătudiants en situation de handicap et inclusion dans les collĂšges du QuĂ©bec"Comprend des rĂ©fĂ©rences bibliographiquesAlong with the continual growth in the number of students with disabilities in colleges over the past 20 years, the associated challenges have become increasingly more complex. Consequently, there has been a paradigm shift emerging that not everyone is ready to adopt. We are gradually moving towards a Universal Design (UD) approach that allows us to respond to the diverse needs of todayâs student population. This bulletin is especially for you, the teachers who daily plan and implement the strategies, methods of evaluation and various measures to ensure that as many of your students as possible can succeed, regardless of their differences
Detour Ahead : Overcoming Roadblocks to Educational Technology Use
The Adaptech Research Network recently completed a study comparing
the views related to educational technology of 311 college students as
well as 114 teachers who were nominated by their students for exemplary
use of technology in the classroom. This presentation will address some
student-teacher differences, the challenges regarding teachersâ use of
educational technology tools and offer possible solutions. Participants will have the opportunity to share their own challenges and solutions.In Collaboration with Mary Jorgensen, Catherine Fichten & Laura King

Employment Opportunities for College Graduates with Disabilities: A Step Forward
Since data show that students with disabilities graduate from college at the same rate as their nondisabled peers, it is time to examine employment of recent graduates. Here we report on a trend toward higher levels of employment for college graduates who were integrated into "regular" educational settings since the 1990s. To illustrate this phenomenon, we summarize our findings of a study on graduates with and without disabilities at three Canadian junior/community colleges
L'accessibilité universelle en pédagogie : des avantages pour toutes et pour tous!
Disponible en anglais dans EDUQ.info sous le titre "Universal Design of Instruction : A Win-Win Situation!"La notion dâaccessibilitĂ© universelle nous vient de lâarchitecture. Elle suppose quâil est possible de concevoir des produits et des environnements accessibles Ă tous. Câest ce concept qui a par exemple conduit Ă concevoir des dĂ©pressions dans les trottoirs aux intersections. Ces dĂ©pressions facilitent la circulation des personnes qui se dĂ©placent Ă lâaide dâun fauteuil roulant, mais sont aussi utiles aux personnes qui promĂšnent un enfant dans une poussette oĂč Ă celles qui transportent une charge Ă lâaide dâun diable. Cet article prĂ©sente les neuf principes de lâaccessibilitĂ© universelle en pĂ©dagogie ainsi que des exemples de maniĂšres de les appliquer. En adoptant cette approche, on fait en sorte que tous les Ă©tudiants puissent dĂ©velopper leur plein potentiel, et ce, mĂȘme sâils sont en situation de handicap
Universal Design of Instruction : A Win-Win Situation!
Disponible en français dans EDUQ.info sous le titre "L'accessibilité universelle en pédagogie : des avantages pour toutes et pour tous !"The concept of universal accessibility, which originated in the field of architecture, assumes it is possible to design products and environments that are accessible to everyone. It was this concept, for example, that led to the design of flush landings for sidewalks at intersections - a feature that helps, not only individuals who use a wheelchair, but also anyone pushing a baby stroller or transporting items on a dolly. This article introduces the nine principles of universal accessibility in education, as well as examples of how they can be implemented. By adopting this approach, we ensure that all students develop to their full potential, even if they are disabled
