Abstract

Continuous advances in the development of information technologies have currently led to the possibility of accessing learning contents from anywhere, at any time and almost instantaneously. However, accessibility is not always the main objective in the design of educative applications, specifically to facilitate their use by disabled people. Different technologies have recently emerged to foster the accessibility of computers and new mobile devices favouring a more natural communication between the student and the developed educative systems. This paper describes an Educational Innovation Project focused on the application of Multiagent Systems, Spoken Dialog Systems, and Virtual Worlds to develop an educative platform.
