教职工常见问题解答

当学生认为自己有残疾时，教师和工作人员应该怎么做?

Interaction with students with disabilities is the same as with any other student. 听听他们要说什么. Ask questions only about how and if the disability will impact them in the class as well as about the accommodations they may be requesting. 如果学生已经在DSS注册, 教师将收到学术住宿的电子邮件通知. Ask students who are self-identifying with a disability about their DSS registration status. 注册的学生将被分配给一名DSS辅导员，他可以促进住宿过程. Accommodations should not be granted unless the student is working with DSS.

教师如何知道他们班上的学生是否在DSS注册并需要住宿或服务?

课程讲师将通过DSS电子邮件通知，该电子邮件将发送给学生和教师. 这封信将概述分配的住宿. 当出现住宿方面的问题时，鼓励教师与DSS辅导员联系.

教师是否有法律责任为合格的残疾学生提供便利?

是的. 可访问性 is essential and should be at the forefront of course planning. 如果您对班级的住宿有疑问，请立即联系DSS辅导员. 教育部, 民权办公室(OCR), the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) mandate students' rights to accommodations and their right to file complaints (OCR) and/or lawsuits (ADA) against the College if these accommodations are not provided.

教师是否应该为任何透露自己有残疾的学生提供便利, 但尚未向社会保障署登记?  

No. 学院不应直接为未在DSS注册的学生提供住宿. 这既保护了学院，也保护了请求服务的学生. The professionally trained DSS顾问s are responsible for evaluating presenting documentation in order to determine if a student qualifies for services, 考虑到他们的残疾，哪些服务是合适的. 在DSS辅导员分配住宿后, 他们协助确保及时提供服务.

目标或标准的降低

住宿信注明志愿记录员. 我需要做什么?

It is the College’s responsibility to make sure the student has access to classroom notes when this is indicated on the accommodation letter. 在班上找出一个可以做志愿记笔记的学生. The student with a disability will provide directions and a note taking pad. 如果你不能找到一个自愿记笔记的人, 请立即联络DSS寻求协助.

Am I required to lower the standards of an assignment because a student has a disability?

No, 残疾学生必须达到与其他学生相同的基本要求和课程标准. 然而, it may be reasonable to exercise flexibility in a component of a course that is not essential. 例如, it may be appropriate to complete an assignment in writing versus an oral presentation if the purpose of the assignment is not to assess oral expression.

如果残疾学生不及格，我该怎么办?

The purpose of the accommodations is to ensure access and does not guarantee success. Treat the student as you would any other student who is not performing well. Encourage the student to visit you during office hours to discuss reasons for failing performance and what resources the student may use to improve. Encourage the student to consult with his/her DSS顾问 regarding needs and strategies. 你也可以直接咨询DSS辅导员.

我该怎么办? about a student with a disability who is misbehaving, threatening, or rude

所有学生都应遵守学院的行为准则. 不良行为不能以残疾为借口. 像对待其他学生一样对待他们的行为. It is helpful to clearly state behavioral expectations for all students; discuss them in your classroom, 在你们的教学大纲上, 并根据需要为个别学生提供帮助. 如果学生继续表现出不适当或破坏性的行为, 与学生私下讨论你的观察和期望. 如果您需要帮助，可以咨询DSS办公室和学生行为办公室.

如果您有任何疑问或疑虑，请联系a DSS顾问. 感谢您在此过程中的协助.  

Can I ask a student who is having difficulties whether he/she has a disability?

Asking a student directly about the possibility of a disability is inadvisable. Disability rights laws prohibit unnecessary inquiries about the existence of a disability. Treat the student who is having difficulty as you would any other student. 这可能包括鼓励学生利用支持和资源，如校园辅导中心, 咨询和建议, 利用你的办公时间. If the student shares with you that he or she has a past history of a disability, 或者怀疑他或她有残疾, 然后，将该学生直接转介到发展支助处是适当的.

What should I do when a student directly hands me their documentation of a disability?

DSS works with students who are deaf or hard of hearing to ensure they receive all reasonable academic-related accommodations necessary. 住宿可能包括课堂笔记, 手语翻译, 语音服务, 或者放大系统.

What should I take into consideration when teaching a deaf or hard of hearing student?

每个学生都是不同的，可能需要安排各种各样的住宿, 包括手语翻译和笔记服务. 有关更多信息，请参见 手语翻译服务.

Is there anything special I need to do for deaf or hard of hearing students if I am showing a video or online video clip in class?

Instructors who have students who are deaf or hard of hearing in their classes need to consider the accessibility of the media they plan to use. These instructors will be notified in advance before the quarter begins by DSS. 有意使用DVD的教官, VHS, or web-based videos and/or podcasts in their course should be aware that they are responsible for offering captioned versions of course materials. Videos are accessible when they are captioned and podcasts are accessible when a written transcript accompanies the audio file.

如果视频没有字幕，或者播客没有文字记录, instructors will need to arrange for an accessible version to be produced. 在所有学生都可以使用不可访问的媒体之前，不得在课堂上播放不可访问的媒体.

克里斯vooorhees, 教育无障碍专员, 是否可以协助教师定位字幕视频, 为视频添加字幕, 在教室和在线课程中播放带有字幕的视频. 可以通过以下方式联系克里斯 cvvoorhees@fc-daudenzell.com.

可访问性通知  

OPE电子竞技官网’s policy requires that all web content conform to accessibility standards described in the Web Content 可访问性 Guidelines, 版本2.0，由万维网联盟(W3C)规定的AA级。. Individual units are charged with developing and implementing a web accessibility strategy per the Implementation section of this policy

手语翻译如何在课堂上帮助聋哑学生?

许多聋哑和重听学生将在课堂上使用手语翻译或字幕服务. 取决于课程内容, 您可能会被要求提前提供材料，以便服务提供者为即将到来的课程做准备. 例如, in a class where there is a large amount of new terminology and vocabulary and readings, 比如文学课, 提前向口译员或语音转文本提供者提供尽可能多的这些信息将是有益的. 另外, 服务提供者可能需要获得课程材料，如教学大纲和/或补充材料的副本.

当有手语翻译在场时, 我应该和翻译说话还是直接和聋哑学生说话?

当需要与学生交谈时, address the student rather than the interpreter and keep in mind that the student will need to be able to see the interpreter and the interpreter will need to be able to hear what you are saying.

Should I make arrangements with DSS if I have to meet with a deaf student during office hours?

询问学生是否需要沟通协助. 而一些学生在课堂上使用服务, 他们可能需要也可能不需要一对一的相同服务. Instructors who need to request 手语翻译 or 语音服务 are encouraged to have the student contact DSS promptly to ensure timely arrangement of services. 虽然我们努力回应所有的服务要求, 我们可能无法满足少于48小时提前提出的要求. 该请求可以发送给学生的DSS顾问.
