Hi, Here's an example of the ways the technology world outside of the disabled community is looking at technology to support individualization of web experience. A person's disability would be just another factor in the decision making process. Scott ------------------------------------------------------------------- Subject: Call for papers: Adaptive Systems for Web Based Education Dear colleagues: Please find attached (and if possible distribute) the call for papers for: WASWBE'02: Workshop on Adaptive Systems for Web Based Education http://sirius.lcc.uma.es/WASWE2002/ In conjunction with 2nd International Conference on Adaptive Hypermedia and Adaptive Web-Based Systems (http://www.lcc.uma.es/AH2002) May 28, 2002. Málaga, SPAIN Workshop Description: Web-based education is currently a hot research and development area. Benefits of Web-based education are clear at hand: learners from all over the world can enroll in learning activities, communicate with other students or teachers, can discuss and control their learning progress - solely based on an internet-capable computer. A challenging research goal is to tailor the access to web-based education systems to the individual learners' needs, as determined by such factors as their previous knowledge on the subject, their learning style, their general attitude and/or their cultural or linguistic background. The goal of this workshop is to provide a forum for the discussion of recent trends and perspectives in adaptive systems for web-based education, and thus to continue the series of workshops on this topic held at past conferences, e.g. : AIED'97 http://www.contrib.andrew.cmu.edu/~plb/AIED97_workshop, ITS'98 http://www-aml.cs.umass.edu/~stern/webits/itsworkshop/ and ITS’00 http://virtcampus.cl-ki.uni-osnabrueck.de/its-2000
