accessibility awareness campaign

As part of our ongoing commitment to student success and inclusive teaching practices, MercerOnline is officially launching our Accessibility and Universal Design for Learning (UDL) Awareness Campaign. This initiative will provide practical strategies, short how-to guidance, and resources to support accessible, engaging course design across our online, hybrid, and digital learning environments.

Why Accessibility Matters
Accessible course design benefits all students—not only those with documented accommodations. Clear organization, readable materials, captioned media, and flexible learning approaches improve comprehension, engagement, retention, and overall academic success. Universal Design for Learning helps us anticipate learner variability and create learning environments that support diverse academic, technological, and personal circumstances.
