This source is very useful for anyone working in a classroom setting. This resource brings you to Microsoft to introduce new ways of making a classroom more accessible. I feel anyone would benefit from this source, not only teachers working with children who have disabilities, but all teachers.

absolutely love it! I already have done some research about classroom accessibility but it was more about the actual place and environment of the classroom. this resource is more helpful for teachers and ways for them to make class materials accessible for everyone!

I believe that having a job is a civil right. Those who are qualified for and want to work should not be denied that right because of an inaccessible building or an outdated set of assumptions about what they can or cannot do..."
