“…However, the evaluation of quality in e-learning has generated proposals for models and standards, in which the accessibility criterion is considered relevant but has not yet reached an information agreement. The automated quality assessment with LOMPAD-Q [32] proposes metadata based on the evaluation of 32 virtual courses, using four different models: LORI, LOEM, ECB-Check and UNE 66181:2012. This study highlights accessibility as an important parameter to be considered in a quality evaluation; however, the way to establish it represents an extensive topic.…”

“…The sustainability and scalability of an educational resource depend on the socialization of the optimal use of repositories and reuse of resources according to the needs of the teachinglearning process. The quality of a resource, including its metadata and accessibility information, represents a broad topic that needs to be integrated [32]. Although some parameters to measure quality are in competition with each other, both peer review tools and user evaluation tools are methods to evaluate the quality of resources.…”

E-learning environments constitute an essential element in education, as they help students to ensure their pass their courses and graduate on time. Although guidelines, techniques, and methods have been presented in some literature in recent years to contribute to the development of accessible e-learning environments that promote digital inclusion, their implementation is challenging. In this context, the use of accessibility metadata not only provides a way to enhance the description of adapted educational resources but also facilitates their search according to the needs and preferences of students, in particular those with disabilities. In this paper, a systematic review was conducted in order to provide the state of the art regarding the use of accessibility metadata in e-learning environments. A total of 746 documents were found during the period from 2012 to 2019, of which 31 were selected according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria relevant to our review. The findings revealed an intensive use of models and standards of accessibility in e-learning environments, however, using accessibility metadata remains underused. In fact, the evaluation of accessibility and adaptability through the use of its metadata was not found. The findings obtained also helped to establish challenges and opportunities in this research field as well as to provide an overview that could support those who generate educational resources to keep their interest in making them accessible.

“…LOMPAD WEB: This tool seeks to support in the correct labeling of metadata based on the standard of the LOMPAD tool, and incorporating Schema.org initiatives with LRMI, identifying the accessibility metadata contributed by [18], [19], and the quality considerations of [20], which aim to add a set of classes and properties to the description of learning resources on a par with other standards with an emphasis on accessibility. For this purpose, a previous analysis of previous proposals and specifications proposed for the LOMPAD tool, which considers IEEE-LOM, was carried out (Figure 6)…”

The increasing number of people are living with disability in the World and their access to formal education is considered a challenge for the development of the online education and educational resources. This problem is considered one of the 17 sustainable development goals that are focused on inclusive and equitable quality education. Nevertheless, the existing proposals for mainstream accessibility in virtual education are still complex to apply. However, the models, standards, and good practices to contribute to the virtual educational process and the design of learning for all are identified. For these reasons, in this paper, we describe an accessibility evaluation proposal based on 4 interaction domains: user analysis and interaction, intelligent systems, knowledge databases, and evaluation. In the same way, we describe a set of tools that constitute a Repository of Accessible Learning Objects (RALO) from the perspective of accessibility and adaptability metadata. In this line, the knowledge database follows the regulation and educational models focused on the students with disabilities needs and preferences from the conception of universal design. The validation of the proposal is based on the interaction study and analysis of regular and disabled students and teachers who developed the Learning Objects (LO). To determine whether there was consensus among the teacher's scores, we used Kendall's Coefficient of Concordance W.
