          Why does PLU Disability Services 
                              provide notetaking 
                                accommodations?
       •    The Americans with Disabilities Act Amendments Act of 2008 and 
            the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 mandate equal access to education, 
            employment and public services for qualified individuals with 
            disabilities. 
       •    In an educational setting, notetaking services may be deemed a 
            reasonable accommodation. 
       •    Accommodations are provided to level the playing field for 
            individuals with disabilities and provide equitable access, not to 
            give individuals with disabilities an unfair advantage. 
                                                                                                         2
       There are many different reasons why a 
                student might receive notetaking 
                                    accommodations
             Examples include, but are not limited to:
       •    Students who are Deaf or Hard of Hearing might need to focus on 
            a sign language interpreter or, if lip reading, need to focus on the 
            instructor. 
       •    Students who are blind or have visual, cognitive, or physical 
            impairments. (Note: If taking notes for students who are blind or 
            have visual impairments, notes must be taken on a laptop or 
            computer so they can later use a screen reader to listen to the 
            lecture or increase the font size large enough for them to identify 
            and read the notes). 
       •    Students who have physical disabilities which impact their ability 
            to take notes. 
                                                                                                         3
             There are many benefits for the 
                                    notetaker as well
        •    Being chosen as a volunteer notetaker is a valuable experience, which 
             could be included in a resume. 
        •    Notetakers benefit from taking notes for someone else by improving the 
             quality and organization of class notes and it encourages regular class 
             attendance. 
        •    It is a rewarding experience to help out a fellow classmate that otherwise 
             might not have access to the information you are helping to provide for 
             them.
        •    Notetaking services are very important to PLU, therefore there is an hourly 
             wage that notetakers will earn for their participation in the PLU notetaking 
             program.                                                                                                  4

         Module 1 Quiz: Why provide 
               notetaking services?
     1. The laws that require post-secondary institutions 
        to provide equal access and accommodations, 
        such as notetaking services, are The American 
          Deaf Acts and the College Rehabilitation Act 
                            (1973). 
             TRUE                     FALSE
              TRUE                    FALSE
                                                   6
