Explore the innovative adaptive techniques discussed in the Universal Web Accessibility Symposium 2000 that aim to provide enhanced access to web content for all users. Topics include conditional text filters, stretchtext, frame-based approaches, adaptive multimedia, direct guidance, hiding, sorting, and link annotation.

Introduction • Universal web accessibility and adaptive hypermedia are fundamentally interlinked. You cannot provide universal web accessibility unless you adapt web presentation and navigational systems to the user. A system is not truly adaptive if it does not adapt to all of its users.

Conditional Text Filters • Conditional text filters are a 'divide and adaptively present' technique. • The information within the hyperspace is divided into components. • Each component has an associated user model state and is only visible if the user is at the appropriate level within the user model. Universal Web Accessibility Symposium 2000

Adaptive Stretchtext • Adaptive stretchtext is similar to a hyperlink but instead of the link opening a new page, the text of the link is replaced. • Stretchtext can be expanded or collapsed to provide as much or as little information as necessary. • Hypermedia information can be presented with all, some, or none of the stretchtext expanded depending on the user model. Universal Web Accessibility Symposium 2000

Frame-based Approaches • Frame-based adaptation uses a frame to present information about a concept. • Each frame is divided into slots and the information presented in each slot and the order in which the system presents information is adapted based on the user model. • Frame-based adaptation is a very common adaptation technique. Universal Web Accessibility Symposium 2000

Adaptive Multimedia Presentation • Adaptive multimedia presentation systems alter the presentation of multimedia elements based on the user model. • It is similar to conditional text filters except multimedia information is adaptively sorted and presented instead of text. Universal Web Accessibility Symposium 2000

Direct Guidance • Direct guidance is the most restrictive form of adaptive navigation support. Users are presented with a single adaptive link. • For example, when taking an adaptive exam, the 'next question' button will link to different questions based on the user's previous performance on the assessment. Universal Web Accessibility Symposium 2000
RATH Universal Web Accessibility Symposium 2000
Hiding • Hiding is the most common technique for adaptive navigation support. • Links are adaptively hidden so that users cannot access components of the hypermedia system until the user model decides that the user is ready for that information. Universal Web Accessibility Symposium 2000

Map Adaptation • Map adaptation alters the mapping of image components to different links depending on the user model. • While the user is presented with the same image, the destinations of clicking on components of the image change based on the user. Universal Web Accessibility Symposium 2000
Sorting • Adaptive sorting orders the links on a page according to the user model so that the most pertinent links for the user are presented first. • With an accurate user model, the user need only work sequentially down the list of links to retrieve information. • The user retains the capability to overrule the adaptive model and selectively use the information presented as appropriate. Universal Web Accessibility Symposium 2000

Link Annotation • Link annotation uses textual or verbal cues to suggest to the user which links to visit in which order. Links may have different icons, be color-coded, or have different font sizes or font types to distinguish between types of links. • The annotation used is adaptively changed based on user actions.
