The content was great and I learned a lot. The peer review process was maddening because peers would open up and grade the original document rather than uploaded work or they would upload work of their own to be graded that had nothing to do with the content. There were two aspects of the course design that I was frustrated with. First, many of the links provided were non-functional. Second, this course was extremely text heavy and visually boring. For a course on accessibility, it really did not meet my neuro-divergent learning style which relies on visual cues to support audio and text.

I enjoyed learning and the assignments were in line with the subject matter. What was challenging are the peer review needs. It was not easy getting the assignments reviewed by people you don't know. It required persistence on my part to continue to post on the message boards for someone to help me out and I them. I actually reviewed more than the required number of assignments and I hope others will as well to help out.

This course provided a fantastic overview of the history of accessibility and practical exercises to put our learning into practice. The only reason I did not give it five stars is because some of the captions are inaccurate, and that's disappointing for a course on accessibility.

Overall, a helpful course.

Some real content and content quality issues with the reading, the peer engagement design, and some of the videos.

If you're a blank slate on Accessibility debates, language, and practices: it's a great class.

If you have any working knowledge on these, it will be very, very easy and perhaps going a level more advanced is better choice.

I was unable to conmplete the assignments due to needing Microsoft suite. I emailed a number of times and no one ever got back to me about being able to complete the tasks on Google Doc or Slides.
