Abstract
- eLearning and eScience technologies offer a particularly wide range of possibilities for pedagogical concepts supporting the special needs and interests of the individual user. The two decisive advantages are defined by interaction capability and the ability to adapt the presentation to the user, both practically unachievable using traditional media. These two features are the key to extend the methodology of teaching scenarios as well as the support of individual learning strategies. Thus, the integration of new media into the academic education possesses the potential to assist in transcending the disadvantages facing disabled people in education. Based on semantic content encoding and model-based development, a broad range of accessibility features can be supported.
