Aim of the project

The general aim of the project is to improve the access for visusally impaired people to E-Learning services. To achieve this aim, it is intended to develop a network for e-tutors which will pay special attention to the needs of learners with visual impairments.

The key-product will be a blended learning course for E-Learning coaches and an optional final online- examination, which will be carried out by the Royal National College for the blind in Hereford, UK.

The general idea of this project is to establish a virtual network, where E-Learning coaches will find the opportunity to exhange experiences and accessible learning materials.

Therefore the following products will be developed during the project:

• A blended-learning course with a volume of about 100 hours as well as a final examination and certification
• Accessible virtual learning environment
• SCORM compatible WBT/CBT and tutorials with explanatory texts and graphical elements, questions and test features
• A multimedia CD with all WBT/CBT and learning materials.
