Ed Up Smart Space with Dr. Amy Lomellini

Craig and Dr. Amy unpack why accessibility is more than compliance, how inclusive design benefits every learner, and where institutions often stumble in supporting faculty and students.

They also explore the promise and pitfalls of AI tools in accessibility, the importance of starting with intentional design instead of costly retrofits, and practical first steps colleges can take to embed accessibility across teaching, technology, and campus culture.

Looking ahead, Dr. Lomellini shares her vision of a future where accessibility is simply non-negotiable—seamlessly integrated into every aspect of education.

Whether you’re an educator, designer, or technology leader, this episode offers actionable insights on creating learning environments that work for everyone.
