Abstract

Researchers and educational technologists are striving to achieve e-learning solutions that offer choice and flexibility in the time, place and mode of learning. Developments that centre on user preference and personalisation have yet to make a significant impact on institutional learning environments and this limitation has given rise to the concept of the Personal Learning Environment. This paper considers a system that takes this concept one step further to cater for the needs and
preferences of disabled learners – an Adaptable Personal Learning Environment.
