Accessibility for e-Learning environments

Abstract

All entities involved in creating, managing and using e-Leaming content and tools have a great challenge making it accessible for students and instructors with disabilities. Current accessibility guidelines have to be concreted and adapted to this context, so they can find the way to make learning process accessible and usable without too much additional work. There are complex elements, concepts and structures in e-Learning, difficult to transmit to people with disabilities and that are out of the scope of current guidelines. © Springer-Verlag 2004.
