The document summarizes the findings of a survey conducted as part of the VIPI project. Over 200 stakeholders completed the survey, including people with disabilities, organizations, trainers, intermediaries, and policy makers. The survey found that people with disabilities prefer e-learning and virtual training methods but have less access to them. Respondents said virtual training could help address common problems with ICT and assistive technology training by making software free and self-paced. Trainers preferred teaching methods like presentations, tutorials and demonstrations that could be supported through a virtual portal. Most experts felt virtual ICT training would improve employment opportunities for people with disabilities.
The VIPI project aims to create an accessible online portal and learning environment to provide ICT training to people with disabilities. Run from 2011-2013 with EU funding, the project has partners in the UK, Belgium, Greece, Lithuania, and Cyprus. It seeks to address barriers people with disabilities face in accessing ICT training, such as a lack of suitable materials. The portal will provide learning objects, online courses, and social networking tools to help users develop digital skills and find employment opportunities using assistive technologies. Evaluation of ICT skills training needs has already begun across the partner countries.
This document summarizes a presentation given at the 2nd ViPi Workshop in Vilnius, Lithuania on semantic content management enhancements. The presentation describes how semantic tagging was applied to books in a bookstore to help the owner better assist customers in finding materials that matched their needs.
