Accessible Learning Services shares some helpful considerations to support learners' group work requirements:

  • Finding a group can present specific barriers for students with disabilities. It can be very helpful to randomly assign students to groups. 

  • Finding one other student to pair-up may be more manageable for students. Consider allowing students to find a pair and then assign pairs to groups.  

  • Some students may experience disability-related barriers to interpersonal communication. Should difficulties arise within their group, support students in addressing the concerns.  

  • Provide sufficient time for the group work to be completed. If students are required to meet outside of class time, students may have disability-related reasons that they need to be able to plan for group meetings in advance e.g., booking an ASL interpreter, arranging for transportation.  

  • Students may require an alternative to group work as an accommodation. Plan for this in advance by having an individual assignment prepared that achieves the same learning outcomes.  

Visit our ALS Information for Faculty website to learn more about accommodating students with disabilities. 

Please email us at accessible-learning@humber.ca with suggestions for key accessibility-related topics that you would like us to address through the Communiqué.

As part of #CyberMonth2022, the HSPP REEL Big Phishing Trainer game returns for a second season. Once again, through the Humber-Seneca Polytechnic Partnership (HSPP), our colleges have collaborated to develop an interactive awareness game. This season of the game reinforces our learning objectives of the previous season, identifying phishing emails through red flags that are commonly seen in phishing attempts. In addition to identifying phishing emails, additional security best practices have been incorporated to exercise your overall security awareness.

In addition to being fun, interactive, and a great learning experience, the game also features a Humber Vs. Seneca leaderboard, which will allow for friendly competition. You will have the opportunity to play the game as many times as you would like, improving your score and increasing Humber's chances of being this years’ winner.

Our colleagues at Seneca were the victors of season 1, we hope that Humber's competitive spirit will see our community be victorious this season.

To get started, please go to husencollege.com to play the game today!

Finally, and most importantly, win prizes!

As a small token of our appreciation of your continued support of our cybersecurity initiatives, weekly raffles prizes will be made available. You can earn raffle entries each week for completing and participating in the game and our other initiatives - the more you participate, the more entries you can earn. During the final week, a grand prize will be drawn, and all your accumulated raffle entries you have accumulated throughout the month will be eligible.

Note: Please play the game to enter this week’s raffle draw and also a chance to win the grand prize.
