By Brenda Ortega MEA Voice Editor It seemed fitting that Eva Menefee was texting a student when she was named this year’s recipient of the James Davenport Memorial Award, which recognizes a member of the National Council for Higher Education (NCHE) for outstanding leadership. An academic advisor at Lansing Community College (LCC) for 31 years, […] The post Longtime Lansing leader in higher education wins national award appeared first on Michigan Education Association.| Michigan Education Association

If your scheduling form requires a mouse, sighted assistance, or workarounds, it is not accessible. For many prospective students, scheduling a campus visit is the first hands-on interaction with a college. It is a key moment that shapes whether they apply, enroll, or recommend your institution to others. This post zooms in on one moment from our ADA Title II Compliance Guide for Higher Education. I am Michael Taylor, a blind screen reader user, and I am sharing my experience with what happen...| UsableNet Blog
Many student portals remain inaccessible to blind users—and that’s a compliance risk.| UsableNet Blog
Every student relies on the course catalog to select classes, explore majors, and plan a path. For blind students using screen readers, the basic task often becomes difficult due to how the content is built behind the scenes.| UsableNet Blog
Most online forms make the application process more complicated for students who are blind. This one made it easier, and that is worth celebrating. I am Michael Taylor, a blind screen reader user. I apply for programs and services online all the time, so I expect to hit barriers. One college application form surprised me in the best way. It was accessible from start to finish. My screen reader announced every field label, guided me through errors, and confirmed my submission. I did not need s...| UsableNet Blog

A couple of weeks ago I was invited to the UN as part of a group of experts considering a proposal to develop a UN online university in STEM for Least Developed Countries (LDCs). I’m not sure how I got invited, and I didn’t attend physically, because, well, because it meant travelling to the US (an aside, I’m not sure the UN can continue to function with it’s HQ in New York, even if it is notionally sited on it’s own territory).| The Ed Techie

So we’ve looked at formation and freedom in the college decision process. I want to examine next the framework of readiness in higher education to get at formation in another way — what should four years make a student ready for? I’ve written about this subject before, but today I want to restate the strengths and add some of the weaknesses of this frame.| sarahendren.com
This is likely to be the first in a series of meditations on the college decision-making process. My two younger kids are embarking on the process now, so I’m thinking about the subject personally; my job as a professor means I’m thinking about it in my workplace, too. And I hardly need to say that the big questions are in the zeitgeist after this academic year: What kinds of four-year experiences are worth paying for? What’s available in that developmental window that can be nurtured a...| sarahendren.com

I expect we’ll see a lot of these types of posts so I apologise in advance for bandwagon jumping. For those outside the UK, there has been a recent TV drama, Mr Bates vs The Post Office, which has dramatised the Post Office scandal, where hundreds of sub postmasters were falsely accused (and convicted) of fraud because of a faulty accounting system that was rolled out in the 00s. The TV series has caused fresh outcry, actions and recriminations, and is probably one of the most important dra...| The Ed Techie
