To inform students of this department, it is recommended that something similar to the following examples be included in your first-class-session announcements and on your syllabus:
"If you experience a disability and would like information about support services, contact Disability Support Services, located in RH 105 at 786-4530.
"Students with disabilities who may need adjustments should contact Disability Support Services. They are located in Rasmuson Hall 105 and can be reached by phone at 786-4530 or by e-mail at aydss@uaa.alaska.edu."
"Please contact me directly with any concerns you specific needs you have. Please contact Disability Support Services to arrange for disability related accommodation. The DSS office is in RH 105. Their phone number and e-mail address are available on their website, at www.uaa.alaska.edu/dss."
Disability Support Services encourages faculty to consider a Universal Design approach to course design. This means that the syllabus would exemplify the concepts of multiplicity and flexibility.
The syllabus would speak to the fact that content is represented in multiple ways, that there are multiple ways for students to engage, and that there are alternative yet equally effective methods for students to demonstrate mastery.
More information, individualized meetings, or department presentations are available by contacting Kaela Parks at 786-4535 or kaela@uaa.alaska.edu
