“…Style-behaviour adaptations are the least common, and there is only one WA tool that implies them [21]. Similarly, tools that work only on style [19,22] and all three options at the same time (content-style-behaviour [23,24]) are difficult to find. It can be observed that the 3 least common options have one type of adaptation in common, the style.…”

“…It is specifically designed for visually-impaired users interested in open data coming from portals such as the European Data Portal 7 . This project is the next step of our starting point project WAFRA, created previously by the authors [10]. The research started with WAFRA that improves the accessibility of websites with large amount of information on the screen, such as Wikipedia.…”

Nowadays, Web accessibility of open data is far from being guaranteed, specially for those data enthusiasts with visual disabilities because they experience barriers while accessing open data portals. In this article, we propose a Web Augmentation Framework for Accessibility for Open Data (WAFRA4OD) in order to facilitate visually-impaired users to navigate through open data portals and get the desired data easily. The main focus of this approach is the improvement of Web accessibility in open data portals using Web augmentation techniques and voice commands. Therefore, WAFRA4OD allows users to access open data through a voice interface including a set of operations: guide users to find relevant open datasets within a portal, read aloud datasets' metadata and read aloud datasets' details and contents. Therefore, by using WAFRA4OD the accessibility of open data portals is improved: data enthusiasts with visual disabilities are now able to interact with open data using voice commands. Also a case study is introduced in this article, in order to show the suitability of the WAFRA4OD proposal for data enthusiasts with visual problems such as blindness and low vision to easily access open data.

“…First, it can improve the accessibility of web content for users with different abilities and disabilities. WA techniques such as text-to-speech conversion, image and video descriptions, and keyboard navigation can help make web content more accessible for users with visual, auditory, and motor impairments [15]. Second, WA can enhance the usability of web applications by providing users with a more personalized and efficient browsing experience.…”

Web augmentation has gained prominence as a promising approach to elevate the user experience by tailoring web content to meet diverse user needs and preferences. It offers the potential to enhance accessibility and personalization, making web experiences more engaging and inclusive. This research study examines the use of web augmentation in the context of web engineering education and its influence on student motivation. The study investigates how the integration of web augmentation techniques motivates students and enhances their learning experience. A questionnaire was administered to gather data on student perceptions and motivation levels following their exposure to web augmentation in the web engineering subject. The findings reveal that the implementation of web augmentation in the web engineering subject has positively motivated students. Students express a strong preference for web augmentation as a learning tool, citing increased engagement and a more interactive learning environment. The findings support the adoption of web augmentation techniques as a valuable pedagogical tool, enhancing the learning experience and fostering student engagement. This study contributes to the field by addressing the gap in related work that focuses on the use of web augmentation specifically in educational settings.
