What happens when choices that make a course more accessible for one student make a course less accessible for another student (or the instructor)? We’ll discuss Sarah E. Silverman’s concept of “access friction” and how we might negotiate these frictions in our own teaching. 

This is the first chat in a series inspired by Sarah Rose Cavanaugh’s “After a Tough Year for Classroom Innovation, It’s Time for a Reset” from The Chronicle of Higher Education.
