The Network for Educational Development (NED) provides educational development opportunities that are designed by Minnesota State faculty and staff for Minnesota State faculty and staff. These opportunities help build awareness, develop knowledge, skills, and abilities, and provide space for reflecting and revising.
Making Zoom Sessions More Accessible and Inclusive (Summer 2026)

We might be used to using Zoom in our work, but not all of us, especially our students, are. In this session, we’ll look at Zoom reactions, annotations, and the whiteboard along with the benefits and barriers of those tools when meeting in Zoom. We’ll also talk about community agreements and how to create norms in communication within our meetings.
Accommodations
The NED is committed to providing universal access to all of our events, we’d like to discover how we can make the event more inclusive so you can fully participate!
Machine generated captions are available in real-time for all Zoom events, however human generated CART (live caption) service and ASL interpretation can be requested with advanced notice (2 weeks) to make the event more accessible.
Please, let us know of any disability-related accommodations that will facilitate your full participation.
