Access to audiovisual media

Only captioned media should be shown in class and assigned as course requirements if a student who is deaf or hard of hearing is enrolled in the course . The term media includes films, videotapes, CD’s DVD’s, streamed digital media, e.g. you tube, live webinars, or any other material containing audio. It is the student’s responsibility to inform faculty they need this accommodation if the syllabus indicates audiovisual media is required for the course. Faculty can either contact Disability Services or can make arrangements directly for this service http://www.ccmaker.com/. A few weeks’ notice is usually required. Please consider requesting films/videos that are available in captioned form as you update your video libraries or borrow films.
