Learner Reviews & Feedback for Disability Awareness and Support by University of Pittsburgh

v

Was an excellent refresher for me as it encompassed several of my undergrad classes on the topic. I would recommend this course to anyone that supports individuals with disability through service, volunteering, or care of any form. Thank you for the opportunity!

Very useful information, clear and valuable topics

Great course, gets you reflecting on your practice

This class is a great introduction to disability awareness and support and as a refresher course. Having worked in education for more than 25 years, I learned a lot taking this course.

I especially enjoyed hearing from multiple perspectives and reading posts from my peers on accommodations. The web links were an added plus.

As i volunteer with adults with special needs i found this very useful

I enjoyed this class a lot and it was a good introduction to working with students with disabilities and was a good refresher.

The course was excelent!

I have learned a great deal of disability awareness & support within the higher education sector. The insight presented throughout each session, via video presentation, provided the resources, tools, and techniques for in classroom enchancement.

I think that this course are too interesting and applicable to the reality, I learned about disabilities, Universal Design for Learning, and specific accommodations and tools for that. And also, I was practicing and improve my english.

I recomend it a lot.

A brilliantly structured course, with very thoughtful assignments. The pace of the course and the way information has been built in the for the students is awesome, and it gives an holistic understanding of disability support and helps create complete awareness of the subject. Loved it, and will expect a few more follow up courses as well.

great course and important materials

Glad to see the video is equipped with Closed Captions

Very interesting course that allows how faculty deal with disabilities services.

great

Excellent course! I learned so much about all types of disabilities and resources that could be used to help students.

Great course! This was very helpful and I recommended it to my colleagues. Thank you!

This course has been fantastic! I learned a lot of the Laws of Disability and the Requirements that Institutions must provide. I have Epilepsy which causes me to be a slower learned, so it's good to be refreshed on what I did know, and for me to be updated on what I didn't know previously. Thank You!

Very important course for teachers and lecturers who wish to understand more about disabilities and about students with disabilities who are enrolling to their courses. this knowledge could be benefitial as well to other students with hidden disabilities or other learning problems.

This course is great, but it took for ever to start!!

This course is very good. I would recommend it to my colleagues. Although it benefit to have more information on other types of accessibility. Its short, simple and well thought.

I recommend that teachers must take this course as it is very resourceful and informative.

This is a really good course in introducing different assistive methods for students with disabilities. Though it is aimed at higher education, I believe that the information can be useful to all teachers.

A very practical and informative course, the links and readings are also very educational.
