Abstract

This chapter will discuss what disabilities are, how they can impact students in an online classroom, and what it means to be ADA compliant. In addition, this chapter will provide some examples of practical applications for designing ADA compliant online classrooms with the purpose of creating relationships. Higher education faculty are at the frontline, making online classrooms accessible and setting the tone for the learning environment. They can engage in relationships with all students and work actively to come alongside those who may need additional support in the classroom. It is in creating relationships with students that barriers are broken and more opportunities for access arise.
