DeafTEC: Teaching & Learning

Accessibility is a core tenant of equitable classrooms. DeafTEC, an organization dedicated to "successfully integrat[ing] more deaf and hard-of-hearing individuals into the workplace in highly-skilled technician jobs," created this Teaching & Learning hub to ensure that classrooms are accessible for all students. The site provides information on many topics and projects, including resources for employers, information on STEM careers, and sections dedicated to writing and math. The left-hand panel organizes resources by sub-topics for easy browsing. For example, the Online Teaching and Learning section links to accessibility guides that may help instructors prepare for virtual learning environments. Similarly, the Captioning Media section contains some basic information on captioning materials to ensure accessibility. Educators will also want to check out the Best Practices for Teaching section, which provides tips on topics ranging from creating a welcoming environment on the first day of school to making appropriate testing accommodations. DeafTEC is supported by the National Science Foundation and the National Technical Institute for the Deaf.
