Abstract
This article describes how an e-learning tool for information literacy can support student learning, and focuses on how to make the program accessible for all students. VIKO is an interactive e-learning tool based on information literacy; it is divided into seven modules and provides a complete course with interactive tests. VIKO was released in 2004, and is successfully implemented in the NTNU (The Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Trondheim) system. VIKO version 2 will implement the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines from WAI, to provide equal access and equal opportunity for students with disabilities. This article is based on a paper presented at the conference “The Human side of IT” -The 13th Nordic Conference on Information and Documentation, Stockholm University, 2007, arranged by SFIS, The Swedish Association for Information Specialists.
