As eLearning increasingly becomes an integral part of education delivery, ensuring that is accessible and inclusive is not only a matter of compliance, but also of equity and effectiveness. Accessibility in eLearning is about making content usable for individuals with disabilities, while inclusion involves designing learning experiences that accommodate diverse needs and preferences. Together,these principles help create educational environments where all learners, regardless of their abilities or backgrounds, can fully engage with and benefit from the content.
As institutions increasingly adopt digital transformation, the demand for high-quality, interactive learning experiences continues to rise. However, many face budget constraints that limit their ability to invest in costly proprietary software or specialized tools. This is where open-source solutions come in. These tools provide faculty with flexibility, cost-efficiency, and community support needed to create engaging, interactive, and accessible eLearning courses. Here’s how open-source resources are reshaping the way we teach and learn.
