This section illustrated the importance of focusing on how access and function are impacted by disability and these are the aspects we should focus on while making accommodations for each student. Also is anyone else concerned that this training still uses aspergers as a diagnosis?

I have learned that the ultimate goal of accommodations is to ensure equal access rather than equal treatment. When working with folx with disabilities, I hope to encourage equity rather than equality. This means that not all folx with disabilities will need the same accommodations, and that these accommodations should strive to present each individual with equal access to education.
