R4R@Q Session - Accessibility in Research: From Design to Dissemination
Date
Wednesday March 1, 2023 10:00 am - 11:30 am
Location
Virtual session
The Vice-Principal Research Portfolio is pleased to host a webinar dedicated to Accessibility in Research. This Resources for Research at Queen鈥檚 (R4R@Q) session will be jointly presented by the Co-chair of SSHRC's Advisory Committee on Accessibility and Systemic Ableism Dr. Stefan Sunandan Honisch and the Queen鈥檚 Manager for Accessibility Services, Andrew Ashby.
will provide an overview of 鈥溾 a toolkit that he helped develop for Royal Roads University. The toolkit suggests guiding questions and offers concrete recommendations for conducting research that incorporates disability inclusion and access into all phases of a project.
Andrew Ashby will provide a foundational knowledge of accessibility and reducing barriers:
Why is accessibility important?
Understanding Accessibility vs Accommodation
Accessibility barriers
Increasing accessibility with some easy and quick accessibility wins
Through participation in this workshop, you will learn:
how to use the toolkit in different research and teaching contexts
how to move beyond approaches that react to disability through ad hoc individual accommodations
how to develop disability-inclusive methods of data collection and analysis
A moderated question-and-answer session will follow the workshop.
