| Accessibility Technology Initiative (ATI)
Students come with various learning needs, experiences, abilities, and learning styles. The California State University (CSU) system has launched an Accessible Technology Initiative (ATI) that provides guidelines for the implementation of state and federal accessibility laws. Accessibility is a priority at San Jose State University. Creating accessible instructional strategies and materials will enable students to access, participate, and express as well as to learn in a way that is appropriate for each individual. A few important links to the policies, checklists and templates follow:
