Revised Coded Memo – Automatic Extension of ATI Requirements
Coded Memo AA-2009-19 (PDF, 64 KB)
As an interim measure, milestones in Coded Memo AA-2007-04 (and in subsequent Coded Memoranda that modified the milestone deadlines) are extended to June 1, 2010. Before the completion of this extension, the ATI Leadership Council will recommend and implement a revised approach and policy for ATI implementation. Of particular importance are three requirements:
- All administrative sites that are critical to institutional access (as established in the Web Accessibility Implementation Plan) should, at a minimum, conform to baseline accessibility standards as defined in Section 508. The May 15, 2009 deadline is extended to June 1, 2010.
- Implementation of an accessible procurement process for all E&IT procurement card acquisitions greater than $2,500. The September 1, 2009 deadline is extended to June 1, 2010.
- New courses and new course content, including instructional materials and instructional websites, will be designed and authored in a manner that incorporates accessibility. The Fall Term, 2008 deadline is extended to June 1, 2010
All other ATI requirements that went into effect before September 1, 2009 will remain in effect.

The "Just One Thing" Challenge
Provost Hellenbrand
Join us to create
"Just One Thing"
to be useable by all. Designing instructional materials to be useable by everyone, is a principle of Universal Design in Education (UDE).
Universal Design in Education
Principles
of Universal Design in Education provide a framework for designing
curricula that enables all individuals to gain knowledge, skills, and
enthusiasm for learning. UDE provides support for learning and reduces
barriers to the curriculum while maintaining high achievement standards
for all. (CAST, 2009).
The Challenge - Create "Just One Thing" in an accessible format:
- PDF Document
- PowerPoint Document
- Syllabus Web Page and/or Faculty Bio Page
- Word Processing Document
- Video Captioning
How does Universal Design relate to ATI?
The
principles of Universal Design are based on teaching to all students
regardless of their individual processing styles or characteristics.
Disability is just one of many characteristics that an individual may
possess. Designing ways to access information and technology in a
fashion that is useable to everyone helps support the California State
University's (CSU) ongoing commitment to provide access for individuals
with disabilities. More information can be found at The Trace Center's Accessibility/Universal Design Information.
