Stud Health Technol Inform. 2017:242:878-885.

Abstract

At first sight there seem to be issues combining technical accessibility guidelines and educational needs when designing inclusive E-Learning. Furthermore Universal Design for Learning seems to contradict individualization. In this paper we address both issues with an inclusive E-Learning design for the LAYA system, which targets disabled and non-disabled learners.

Keywords: Universal Design; Universal Design for Learning (UDL); accessibility; e-learning; educational technologies.
