In the realm of online education, ensuring accessibility for students with visual impairments is paramount. Challenges include inadequate labeling, insufficient keyboard navigation, and screen reader incompatibility on learning management platforms (LMS). Additionally, the absence of descriptions for visual content and time measurement are significant obstacles. These hurdles induce stress and impede the performance of visually impaired students, underscoring a gap in equitable educational access. To solve this problem, a blend of agile, Scrum, and Design Thinking methodologies will be employed. A collaborative approach is taken to identify and address specific accessibility challenges in evaluative events in a LMS, developing a custom Moodle LMS plugin to enable visually impaired individuals to navigate quizzes more efficiently, enhancing their LMS evaluative events experience, and advocating for educational equality. © 2024, Associacao Iberica de Sistemas e Tecnologias de Informacao.
