4. EU4ALL aims
Aims and gainsEU4ALL is anchored in the tertiary and distance education sector, but might be interesting for all institutions which have a substantial number of students with disabilities and which offer technical enhanced courses (e-learning).
Research & Development projectDevelopment of open, flexible, standards oriented architecture complementing functionalities of platforms. Moodle and .lrn will be used in the EU4ALL project.
Human FocusBased on users’ needs -> user requirements
Adaptability and accessibility for individual students (personalisation)
Adaptability for institutions

5. Project activities
Surveys and interviews with students with disabilities and with university staff: needs and challenges (individual perspective)
Analysis of offered services at different institutions from enrolment until graduation (institutional perspective)
Development of first prototypes (Guidance for All Package, ePortfolio, Content Personalisation..)
Evaluation of prototypes with experts and end-users
Results feed back into design process (usability and accessibility) -> eventual redesign of prototypes
Large scale evaluation of implemented services at UNED and OUUK

6. UNED Scenario
This Scenario is drawn from the Spanish distance university UNED. It serves as Good Practice example, which makes the potential of EU4ALL visible. The pontential of EU4ALL comes true when accessibility at an institution is of strategic relevance.
ScenarioMartha is a deaf student. It would be helpful to her to have visual alternatives to acoustic material, to get support in text comprehension und written assignments, to have more time disposable at exams and have access to glossaries and online dictionaries.

8. UNED Scenario
REALISATION IN DETAIL• Lector have access to a list of accommodations which the registered students
require
• Lector checks the availability of accessible learning materials that meet all requirements (UNED e-spacio tool). In case of unavailability of accessible materials sends a request to transformation-service
– Through Guidance for ALL (G4ALL) tool lector gets all the
needed information related to deaf students (Martha) in learning situations
– Search for alternative materials in database (e-Spacio) – Request to transformation-service– Material can be provided on platform and course is realised.
• Martha receives a video with subtitles to achieve the aimed learning outcome.

13. Analysis of socio-economic situation of people with disabilities
Tertiary education:
Students with disabilities are in average 4 years older than their peers (!)
![Page 17: The socio-economic situation of students with disabilities](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062301/56815d9b550346895dcbbe75/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

14. Analysis of socio-economic situation of people with disabilities
Education as protecting factor …the unemployment rates of persons with and without
disabilities do not differ significantly if they acquired a tertiary education degree but differ in all other levels
…the higher the attained ISCED level, the lower the risk of poverty
…the higher the attained ISCED level, the higher the income
