Abstract

E-learning is one of the best tools to support an individual’s education system worldwide. There is a demand to create an e-learning site in Kannada for disabled people to remove accessibility barriers. In this paper, we have introduced a new framework for Web accessibility, providing easy access and lifelong learning to the Web site for Kannada’s deaf/blind speakers. The main purpose of this framework is to support Kannada’s deaf/blind by using the language of Kannada sign, speech text, and Kannada Moon code. Kannada-speaking disabilities can learn effectively in this framework.
