Welcome! |
| Welcome to the Accessible Instructional Materials – Virginia (AIM-VA) on-line registration system. The purpose of our site is two-fold. First, we provide information about AIM-VA for the educational community seeking information about our organization. Second, we provide accessible instructional materials for k-12 students with print disabilities in a timely fashion. |
To inform local education agency divisions in detail about AIM-VA, the Division of Special Education & Student Services has prepared an implementation manual “Accessible Instructional Materials for Students with Disabilities” that addresses the new policies and procedures for ordering alternate formats of textbooks and core instructional materials. Please consult the section of the manual on eligibility and the role of the IEP to assist in the determination of who qualifies for services. The implementation manual offers background information, technical support, and links to related resources. It may be found at www.aimva.org under the training tools. Under the same section of the website there are a number of instructional videos that serve as training tools.
|
Before a local education agency can request and receive materials from the AIM-VA, its superintendent must designate staff person(s) to be a Digital Rights Manager (DRM). The DRM is a local education agency level staff person deemed by the superintendent to be responsible for monitoring and documenting copyright compliance within the local education agency. Larger local education agency divisions may elect to appoint multiple DRMs. The DRM must request, receive, and track the usage of copyrighted accessible instructional materials for students with print disabilities.
|
To simplify the DRM registration process we have prepared a downloadable form that replicates the online DRM registration process. Information needed to register DRM(s) includes first name, last name, email address, and phone number (DRM Worksheet).
