Popis: Virtual Learning Environments (VLEs) are changing the old ways of teaching and learning and provide support to the modalities of semi-presential or distance education. However, the platforms used for Distance Learning (DL) do little to ensure education for all and without barriers. In endeavoring to make a contribution to inclusive DL, this article presents and discusses the results of an applied research study on the development of a tool for the Moodle platform that aimed to facilitate, for those designing content, the inclusion of accessible content, thus allowing greater use of a course for the visually impaired.
