Naturally, most students can capture, edit and store all acoustic, written and visual information. Often, however, information and communication processes in courses are not accessible, so that students with disabilities and/or chronic illnesses can sometimes experience massive problems in their daily study. For example, visually impaired students have limits on the collection of written or pictorial teaching information or hearing-impaired students when recording acoustic information.

For this reason, the provision of accessible teaching and learning materials for disabled students is a prerequisite for successful learning!
