In the previous chapter you looked at the challenges involved in writing for diverse audiences. You became aware that diversity is not limited to international audiences, but that just one group may contain learners with varying learning styles, native languages, and cultural backgrounds. This chapter focuses the work on accessibility in the better-known sense. That is, accessibility issues such as levels of cognitive development, health, mobility, and perceptual factors which inform user-centered design practices. This chapter includes gender and technical access issues as well.

Students develop various learning styles based on their preferences and learning habits. To serve different learning styles in a class with a number of students using the conventional face-to-face teaching method is not practical; therefore, the idea of personalized e-Learning to accommodate differences in learning style has arisen. Building on this idea, this research intends to provide an alternative interaction design for e-Learning modules by developing content based on user needs using the User-Centered Design methodology. Due to a lack of e-Learning content for visual and global preferences in the Felder-Silverman learning styles, User-Centered Design is chosen as the basis to design the e-Learning module. The result consists of an alternative design and a proposed interface design. The alternative design describes learning objects and navigation of the e-Learning module. The proposed interface design is a prototype of an interactive e-Learning module. After being evaluated, the prototype satisfies the user's expectations in terms of content translation, content navigation, and interactivity throughout the module.

Indonesia is a country with a variety of regional languages that characterize the nation. Every region in Indonesia has its local language and with its dialect and is characteristic of the region. Regional languages have become a long-established identity. Unknowingly, Indonesia is experiencing an increasingly rapid cultural change in which young genes are already in a condition where many require them not to use their local language. Also, data collected by UNESCO shows that there are approximately 30 regional languages that are endangered and, on average, are in eastern Indonesia. Facing the existing problems, this study aims to help young people to get to know their local languages through mobile applications. The local language used as research is the “lamaholot” language, which is one of the native languages of the people of East Flores Regency and uses the user-centered design method. The design will be tailored to the user so that it can be more attractive and according to user needs. Respondents were taken as many as 147 children with an average age between 10 years to 14 years who are people in East Flores Regency.
