Teaching and learning practices might vary across academic disciplines, as well as individual preferences and needs. The recommended practices need to be fit and applied to various disciplinary contexts and authentic practices.

Use these cheat sheets along with other resources, consideration of the contexts, and your own best judgment. Always be aware of and respect the diverse access needs of different individuals.
  • Software, programmes, and operating systems are constantly and rapidly developing along with changing accessibility functions. Statements in these cheat sheets about the accessibility-related functions of any software, programmes, and operating systems may no longer represent their current status.
  • The Project team strives to provide up-to-date and correct information as well as functional hyperlinks of the cited resources in these cheat sheets.
