Developed by a HAPS subcommittee, the handbook offers guidance on accommodating student s with a wide range of needs, from physical limitations to visual or hearing impairments. The goal is to help instructors identify meaningful alternative s to standard lab protocols that promote student success. The handbook is organized by common accommodation requests and includes sections on universal desig n principles, making accommodations for temporary conditions, and incorporating tactile and visual aids. The HAPS committee plans to regularly update the handbook as new strategies and technologies emerge. 0:00:00 | Introduction 0:00:48 | How It Started 0:19:33 | Blue Sky's From Now On * 0:20:38 | You Don't Know You Need It Until You Do 0:32:57 | Brain Break *…
