It sounds like Moodle http://moodle.org/ could be the solution you could
use. Moodle is a free open-source learning management system. You would need
a hosting service to install it on. There are some 3rd party hosting
companies that will set it all up for you for a price.

There is a free video conference mod
http://moodle.org/plugins/view.php?plugin=mod_videoconference but I have
never used it so I don't know if it will work with your assistive
technology.

Perhaps others will chime in on this.

Subject: [WebAIM] can someone recommend blind friendly elearning software or
system

Hello listers:

I am a blind user of jaws and I would like to start an elearning site, where
I could teach social science courses using jaws. Can someone point me to
write solution?

My requirements are as follows:

1. audio or video conferencing where I would talk to students and they would
send me their questions by chat on the same principe as jaws webinars or
similar.

2. way that sutdents could access online notes which would be password
protected but the students could not download them.

3. students would first pay for my course and then they would receive a
password.

4. giving online tests that would students do online.

Just a regular elearning.

If you could guys point me to the right direction I would be thankful to
you.

Also do you know what happend to European project on accessible elearning
alpe? The email address of the project <EMAIL REMOVED>

does not function.

Anyway what elearning solution could you recommend and what would be its
cost and if jaws scripting would be needed what would that cost.
