Description:
Essential Requirements, whether for a course or program, are the knowledge and skills “that all students must demonstrate with or without using accommodations” (Stanford University, 2019).
This working session will guide instructors in differentiating between essential requirements and course learning outcomes. We will work through existing or newly drafted assessments to navigate what skills, knowledge and values students must be able to demonstrate, and how assignments can be adapted to prioritize accessibility and equity.
Participants are encouraged to bring hard-copies of an assessment that they are interested in developing during the session.
