Towards improving the e-learning experience for deaf students: e-LUX [PDF]
Lecture Notes in Computer Science, Springer, 2014, Universal
access in human-computer interaction: universal access to information and
knowledge, 8514 (2), pp.221-232, 2019 Deaf people are more heavily affected by the digital divide than many would expect. Moreover, most accessibility guidelines addressing their needs just deal with captioning and audio-content transcription. However, this approach to the problem does not consider that deaf people have big troubles with vocal languages, even in their written form.
