As instructors in STEM fields work toward building more accessible courses this Spring, the Drake Institute will facilitate a Community of Practice (CoP) for those seeking peer-to-peer support, guided learning and help testing new and existing accessibility solutions. The primary goal of the CoP is to provide a collaborative space for instructors to connect with colleagues who understand both the value and unique challenges of STEM accessibility.
The STEM Accessibility CoP will meet via Zoom from 1:30-3 p.m. on the following dates:
- January 15
- January 22
- February 5
- February 19
- March 5
- March 26
- April 2
- April 9
During the first meeting, CoP facilitators will help participants determine the specific goals and outcomes for the CoP and produce a tentative plan for the remaining sessions.
Join the CoP
All who teach in STEM fields are eligible to join the CoP, but participation will be limited to 15 instructors. If you are eager to join, please fill out the interest form before January 2, 2026.
