Area of Science:

  • Educational Technology
  • Human-Computer Interaction
  • Accessibility Research

Background:

  • Designing inclusive E-Learning presents challenges in integrating technical accessibility guidelines with diverse educational needs.
  • Universal Design for Learning (UDL) principles can appear to conflict with the need for individualization in learning.
  • Existing E-Learning systems may not adequately address the needs of both disabled and non-disabled learners simultaneously.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose an inclusive E-Learning design that reconciles technical accessibility with educational requirements.
  • To demonstrate how Universal Design for Learning can support individualization within an E-Learning context.
  • To present the LAYA system as a model for inclusive E-Learning design.

  • Development of an inclusive E-Learning framework for the LAYA system.
  • Integration of technical accessibility guidelines (e.g., WCAG) with UDL principles.
  • Design considerations for accommodating both disabled and non-disabled learners within a single platform.

Main Results:

  • The proposed LAYA system design effectively integrates accessibility and UDL, addressing apparent contradictions.
  • The design facilitates a more inclusive E-Learning experience for a diverse learner population.
  • Demonstration of a practical approach to achieving both accessibility and individualization in E-Learning.

Conclusions:

  • Inclusive E-Learning design is achievable by carefully integrating accessibility standards and UDL.
  • The LAYA system provides a viable model for creating E-Learning environments that cater to all learners.
  • Future work should focus on empirical validation and broader implementation of the LAYA system design.
