TV-AiD: SOAR
Strengthening Our Accessibility Roadmap - together
Save the Date: Friday, February 26, 2027
Accessibility moves forward when we connect expertise with everyday teaching practice. Hosted by the UAH Enhanced Teaching & Learning Center, TV-AiD SOAR—Strengthening Our Accessibility Roadmap—will bring together faculty, accessibility professionals, instructional designers, and distance learning professionals to share practical approaches and identify meaningful next steps for accessible teaching and learning.
We’re building on our community’s expertise by welcoming more faculty perspectives, connecting classroom experiences with the tools, strategies, and partnerships that support accessibility. Whether you bring specialized knowledge, a teaching practice, or a question to explore, your perspective can help strengthen our shared roadmap.
Share Your Expertise: Submit a Proposal

- Accessible course materials, assessments, and learning activities
- Discipline-specific challenges, including math, science, and multimedia
