Teaching

A university that has set out to become a "university for all"  absolutely needs the support of its teaching staff in order to be able to shape everyday university life inclusively.
However, dealing confidently with health restrictions and diverse life situations during studies is not always easy.

The Service Center "Studies and Disability" is your central contact for this topic. In addition, each department has its own disability officer to deal with any questions that may arise in a decentralized manner. In principle, it is also advisable for teachers to consult the information material for affected students. For a quicker overview, however, we have compiled some sources of information especially for teachers.

If you need further information or have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the Service Center or the Representative for Studies and Disability.

Creating accessible documents

Accessible documents make it easier for all users to access the content they contain.
You can find help on designing accessible documents on the pages of the literature conversion service.

Special workstations

• In addition to the actual PC workstations, the E-Assessment Center (Henschelstraße 2) has two special workstations. The special workstations are located in the administration office of the E-Assessment Center.

 Seat A (for visually impaired students) has:

• an extra large monitor
• a screen magnifier with integrated light
• a cold light reading lamp
• an 80 Braille display from the company Focus
• Jaws
• Magic

Seat B (for the hearing impaired) has

• a LA hearing loop

Both special workstations are located on larger and electrically height-adjustable tables so that there is sufficient space for both work assistance and wheelchairs. Also, students with high needs for quiet and privacy can take advantage of these workstations.
In addition, there are two other workstations in the E-Assessment Center in the seclusion room with height-adjustable, wider tables that are also suitable for wheelchairs.
 
Recommendation:
If you would like to use one of these workstations, please contact the E-Assessment Center team as early as possible. The e-mail address is eklausur[at]uni-kassel[dot]de
All special conditions due to a disadvantage compensation, also in case of a time extension, must be discussed and clarified in advance with the lecturer or the examination office, so that they can be taken into account when conducting the exam."
