“…For example, transcription and closed captioning of online videos were originally used to make content accessible to the deaf and hard of hearing. However, nowadays, this technology is successfully employed and enjoyed by other groups, such as people who want to learn a second language, people with dyslexia, and seniors [12].…”

Authoring tools are software programs that allow users to create learning content, lessons, and courses, usually to be used in virtual learning environments. These tools are a reasonable choice for novice users, as they use pre-programmed elements and do not require specific programming skills. However, they do not always meet accessibility guidelines, nor do they ensure that the educational content generated through them is accessible. This study first evaluates the accessibility of four popular free open-source authoring tools based on the ATAG recommendations. Then it evaluates the accessibility of the educational content generated through them based on the WCAG recommendations. These evaluations allow us to identify the level of accessibility of the authoring tools and their potential to help people with disabilities to become not only consumers but also producers of accessible educational content. We conclude that, while much work remains to be done to ensure accessibility, authoring tools are a potential key to effective social inclusion. Based on the findings of this study, we establish a set of recommendations for stakeholders to help close some gaps regarding accessibility.

“…Reusability eliminates the need to create new objects each time, lowering costs and increasing productivity. (Ho, 2021), (Mourão & Netto, 2019) A learning object, according to the International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE), is any digital or non-digital object that supports the learning process and can be customized to the needs of a group of learners and reused in other learning situations. Also, it can define them as "digital learning units that contain small particles of educational content prepared in a digital form, address a specific goal, and can be reused in another educational situation.…”

“…The interactive learning objects are appreciated by many instructors in search of new methods and supports for novice programming students (Matthiasdottir, 2006). Several studies showed that the use of learning objects contributes significantly to the improvement of computer science teaching-learning process (Adamchik & Gunawardena, 2003;Andreza & Magalhães, 2019;Begosso et al, 2015;Cavus & Ibrahim, 2004; Jaimez-González, García-Mendoza, Luna-Ramírez, Nápoles-Duarte, & Vargas-Vargas, 2018; Luna-Ramírez & Jaimez-González, 2014; Narasimhamurthy & Shawkani, 2009;Tapoli & Mikropoulos, 2019;Villalobos & Jiménez, 2009).…”

This paper presents an approach to implement learning objects for teaching and learning problem-solving techniques based on computer programming. The demonstrated approach exploits computer-based interactive animations and computer graphics. The main feature of this approach is its simplicity for exploring the concepts and structures of the programming that are used to implement a solution for a problem under consideration. The developed learning objects feature the possibility of reusability and adaptability in e-learning settings. Moreover, the learning objects can be utilized as a hands-on experience for the learners of a certain subject matter. The approach applied for the design and implementation of the learning objects for computer programming-based problem solving can be extended to other disciplines of science and technology. As a demonstration of the proposed methodology, we showed an application that utilizes the approach to implement a learning object for solving a well-known statistics and probability problem.
