Developing a universally accessible web portal for traditional and distance learning versions of a computer literacy course

Abstract

Information Technology (IT) offers a wide range of opportunities for education and career enhancement for those who have access to the technologies they employ. However, many people find themselves on the wrong side of the digital divide that separates those with access to new technologies and those without. Even if they have access to these technologies, some people with disabilities find themselves on the wrong side of a second digital divide that is caused by the inaccessible design of coursework. This paper is a report on the findings of the authors using IT tools for developing a Universal Accessible Web Portal for the traditional and distance learning versions of the COMP1000 Introduction to Personal Applications Computer (COMP1000) course.
