> tailoring content and interfaces individually and locating  
> accessible materials for each user's needs -- all while offering  
> the richest possible learning experience to all. (See http://

> year collaboration between the National Center for Accessible Media  
> (NCAM) and IMS Global Learning Consortium, an industry consortium,
