Abstrakt: Even though mobile devices already play an important role in assisting people with disabilities in their daily and professional lives, there are opportunities to further advances by developing assistive technology with Distributed User Interfaces (DUIs). DUIs empower not only the individual but also the environment. In order to support exploration of this concept, we present a mobile application developed with DUI characteristics in an educational context. We discuss achieved results in the light of the empowerment objective. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
