- Synopsis
- Appropriate services and accommodations allow students~with disabilities to have opportunities equal to their nondisabled peers. This dissertation demonstrates how services to students with disabilities can be increased through an online service entitled Disabilities Online Services Center (DOSC). This unique service allows students to request accommodations and attain information about academic policies and services external to the academic community. Additionally, teachers, training directors, tutors, and others involved in education and training can obtain information about how to make the academic and internship environment more accessible. Providing these services electronically increases information and access to various groups while increasing compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act. This dissertation includes the theory, rationale, and steps made in the creation of DOSC. DOSC is currently in its conceptual stage and has not yet been implemented.
