Foil 48 XML and Universal Access II

From Integration of Information Technology and Computational Science in Education and Research Computer Science Seminar -- August 27 1999. by Geoffrey C. Fox


1 Assume that all education will be web-based
2 Assume that we need to provide web resources of equal quality for all citizens
3 This will not work if one has to translate each course from material for "regular user" to that for "user for different access capabilities"
4 Thus only chance is to define curriculum in XML and produce customized presentation layers
5 One will need a powerful indexing/abstracting scheme to be able design appropriate navigation schemes for all users and clients
  • Natural framework is XML based Education Portals with SPW implementing collaboration (a.k.a. teaching)
