Such approaches limit scalability and acknowledgement of the user experience. About the case: A certificate program for faculty and graduate teaching assistants who are instructors of record at one university provided an opportunity to develop a learning module about dyslexia. Situating the case: Dyslexic students frequently require alterations to both teaching approaches and document design; however, studies show that some faculty do not see or feel a need to offer any accommodations for this dis/ability. Research indicates that train-the-trainer approaches to accessibility training offer improved scalability and efficacy when it comes to engaging and acknowledging the needs of dis/abled communities. Amplifying voices from the dis/abled community in training also personalizes the need to make content accessible. Approach: This article covers the module's creation and implementation via the iterative Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation (ADDIE) method. In doing so, it provides a framework for creating similar modules that industry practitioners and faculty can implement within their own organizations. Results/discussion: The COVID-19 pandemic led to fewer participants in the module than anticipated; however, preliminary feedback suggests the approach's efficacy. Conclusion: A train-the-trainer approach that integrates testimonials from the dis/abled community offers a user-focused means of disseminating accessibility guidelines that organizations should consider if looking for rapid scalability for new accessibility initiatives.}, number={3}, journal={IEEE Transactions on Professional Communication}, publisher={Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE)}, author={Phelps, Christin}, year={2021}, month={Sep}, pages={250–263} }

This experience report provides an overview of a module created for a certificate program for faculty and teaching graduate students that offers specific suggestions for changes and modifications to course materials and classroom activities which address these challenges. It provides an overview of the development of the module, including the technology involved, as well as describes the ten ‘tips and tricks’ provided to participants, including changing fonts and font sizes, making formatting editable by students, and allowing students to present their ideas before they write about them. Faculty within higher education can utilize these suggestions to expand the accessibility of their course while practitioners can expand their own understanding of accessibility standards as well.}, journal={Proceedings of the 38th ACM International Conference on Design of Communication}, publisher={ACM}, author={Phelps, Christin}, year={2020}, month={Oct} }
