SCHEDULE YOUR FINAL EXAMS
Remember to visit rability.ucr.edu<https://rability.ucr.edu/clockwork/custom/misc/index> to request to use your accommodations this quarter! This allows SDRC staff to review your request, identify anything that may require SDRC assistance, and provide guidance to the faculty or student. If your exam requires in-person proctoring,submitting this request in a timely manner will reserve an appointment for you at the SDRC Testing Center. The University needs to track exams given with accommodations to ensure that accessibility is being provided.

To protect your rights, please follow the established process in accessing approved accommodations<https://sdrc.ucr.edu/steps-accessing-approved-accommodations>. The SDRC can only support official accommodation requests submitted through R'Ability<https://rability.ucr.edu/>. If arrangements are coordinated outside of the official SDRC process, you risk not receiving your SDRC-approved accommodations in a timely manner or not in a manner appropriate to your situation. Submitting your exam information allows SDRC to effectively advocate for you when
necessary.

Tech Tools Workshop: Note-Taking

The goal of the in-person Tech Tools Workshop is to give SDRC students an opportunity to get a one-hour hands-on training/support by Accessible Technology (AT) Specialist.

These sessions will support collaborative learning and maximize time/space within our center. Having an in-person interaction allows the AT Specialist to address misconceptions and provide direct support. AT Specialist will support and facilitate a positive learning environment that will encourage students to consult more regularly with SDRC for their AT needs.

This workshop will take place November 29th from 2PM to 3PM in the SDRC Conference Room, Student Services Building (SSB) 1228.

Sign-up for the Tech Tools Workshop on Note-taking<https://sdrclab.simplybook.me/v2/#book> ahead of time to attend!

Spotlight on Technology:
Glean Note Taking Tool

Do you have note taking accommodation? Audio record in the classroom?

Glean may be a useful tool in your box of resources.

Glean allows students to record, playback, and add notes at their own pace, as well as encourages returning to notes for further study. View the Glean Explainer Video<https://glean.co/solutions/recommend-glean> to see if this tool may work for you (this video runs for 3 minutes, 16 secs).
