It’s an IDEA (Inclusion, Diversity, Equity and Accessibility) : Learning to foster authentic inclusion for accessibility through VR simulations

Abstract

Using XR simulations, learners have the opportunity to participate in simulated experiences that look at anti-ableism in living, learning, and working environments. Through application to real-life situations based on lived experiences of persons with disabilities, these simulations provide immersive experiences that will help deepen understanding of accessibility, authentic inclusion, equity, Universal Design, accessible education standards, and AODA requirements.
