Assistive technology companies like EyeGaze charge a lot for their products. This is because there is a lot of tech to ensure that it works accurately and is compatible with third party applications. Hopefully, Apple can lower the costs in the future for people with disabilities who use eye tracking technology.

Digital Accessibility Needs for People with Disabilities in Higher Education
(www.researchgate.net)
Arizona State University is the first higher education institution to have a partnership with OpenAI. I think this is related to that deal. I don't know how long it will stay free.
Ableist is defined as discrimination or prejudice against people with disabilities, especially physical disabilities. Supporting people of all different races and trying to end systemic racism would be about being anti-racist. Feminism is a little too broad for me to define but it would probably align with providing men and women equal rights. The goal is to unite people not divide. The issue is that most of the web is inaccessible and cannot be accessed by people with disabilities. Excluding a group of people from a building because of their gender, race, or disability is against the law. Yet, people with disabilities are excluded or lack access to information on publicly available websites each day. This type of change requires people to be anti-ableist and to do the work necessary to make their website accessible.
Unfortunately, most academic journals still publish only PDFs. I couldn't find an HTML version.
Thank you for sharing. Glad it is helpful 😀
100% agree. This is why adding short but descriptive audio prompts for everything is very important. In this example they forget to add an audio prompt for when an object is grabbed, which immediately became an accessibility barrier. In addition, creating an intuitive way to navigate the audio prompts similar to screen reader navigation is needed.
You can print your own paper if you have an inkjet printer. I'm not sure how well it works. Most users buy their journals. The journals make it easier to store your notes and you can group them by subject.
No it isn’t. Most of the webinars from well known vendors (Deque University, Level Access, 3 Play Media) are very focused on the topic. They may spam your email with some product stuff but you can always unsubscribe.
This study on Zoom camera use found that students turn off their cameras because of personal appearance, people being in the background, and slow internet connection. A Stanford study identified constant camera use as a cause for Zoom fatigue and recommended audio-only breaks. Educause on equitable camera use highlights best practices at the end of the article like a flexible policy, using icebreakers, and providing alternatives. Hopefully, these articles are helpful and might lead to your institution creating a more flexible policy.

It is a real test and they had an independent auditor but it still may be BS. Check out this Too Good To Be True article.
