Abstract
Today´s e-learning environments are still far from being accessible for people with disability. Furthermore, the availability of accessibility guidelines, the diversity of the e-learning platforms and evolution of assistive technologies do represent just a partial solution. In fact, adopting the accessibility since the design phases could provide a rational solution. Therefore, the application of Model Driven Architecture (MDA) with a user centred approach turns out the most appropriate. This paper presents a new approach based both on different level abstraction models and IMS Access for all specification in order to allow the generation of a learning experience in different accessibility setting.
