Disability and EVE Online: Difference between revisions

EVE University is committed to fostering an inclusive learning environment and actively works to make our fleets, classes, and resources more accessible:

* '''Classes (and recordings)''' – Many Uni classes are recorded and uploaded to allow students to learn asynchronously if they cannot attend live sessions. Written class notes are often provided for those who prefer text-based learning and students can aski for sldie packs prior to or after classes to review them at their own pace and we will do our best to provide these.

* '''Youtube classes''' - Our intent os to have full subtitles on our youtube videos. We appreicate that sometimes the autogenerated text is innacurate, and we're slowly working through these manaully hwere we can to update them.

* '''Wiki''' – The Uni Wiki is written with clarity in mind and uses structured headings, concise explanations, and alt-text on key images where possible. If you identify any areas of the wiki where we could improve our accessibility, please let us know.

* '''Fleets''' – Uni fleets often use clear verbal communication and the in-game broadcast fleet settings. wE can't always promise ot have a full set of commands posted into chat, but if you need this we will do our best to provide it. Fleet Commanders are also encouraged to speak clearly and calmly, to repeat key fleet instructions,  and to avoid jargon-heavy language. If in doubt, please aks for clarifications.

* '''Learning''' – We appreciate that some players need extra time to prepare, reflect on information, process their thoughts, and ask questions. We'll always try to provide this extra time in our content.  

* '''Community Support''' – Our ethos emphasizes kindness and inclusivity. Members are encouraged to support each other, and to be helpful. Again, we come from a range of cultures and backgrounds, and we don't always get things right the first time, but we'll keep trying to be better and to maximise our inclusivity and accessibility.

By combining EVE Online’s built-in features with EVE University’s culture of patience and inclusion, we strive to make EVE Online welcoming to every capsuleer.
