“…Predefined toolbars can be used, but al so user-defined toolbars with the desired functionalities can be created. (AT bar ; Wald et al, 2011 ;Web Developer) Another possibility is to intervene in the network traffic of the browser in order to apply the corresponding transformations there. This works via a proxy.…”

This paper describes the creation of a problem-based learning unit. The aim is to help students to learn how to make applications more accessible through aspects of personalization. In addition, a basic understanding of smarthome interfaces will be given. For this purpose, the personalization framework OpenAPE and the smarthome interface OpenHAB will be used. A java OpenAPEClient will be created for OpenAPE. The client will then be used in a tutorial application. This tutorial application is to be integrated as a kind of cloze text in the learning unit as a practical exercise. It implements a lamp control and a personalizable user interface. Final user tests showed that the learning unit is executable as planned. Some problems and inconsis tencies were already identified and eliminated during the user tests.

“…We verified it's a way to get a proven methodology for the storage and recover of experiences with reasons that motivated a determined development. Wald et al (2011) in turn, presents the web2Acess 2 that allows the users to evaluation a site according to WCAG 2.0 and others Guidelines. The difference with the AccessibilityUtil is the idea of assessment of a web site and not a generic artifact.…”

Existing guidelines on how to develop web applications with accessibility are currently not applied in many organizations. The lack of "closeness" of these guidelines to the developers is one of the most significant reasons for this scenario, as developers often do not know them or find it difficult to apply them. As a proposed solution to increase the use of guidelines in development practices, we present a proposal of a collaborative tool for sharing and disseminating experiences. The proposal is based on capturing and disseminating Design Rationale (DR) related to experiences with developing web artifacts, following the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0.
