Description

This study explores the perceptions of newly enrolled Master of Information Systems (MIS) students at the University of the Philippines Open University (UPOU) regarding the web accessibility of the UPOU MyPortal, the university's Moodle-based learning platform. Using a mixed-methods approach, the study integrates quantitative surveys and qualitative open-ended questions to gather insights into students' experiences and challenges.

Preliminary findings from the research indicate that, overall, the UPOU MyPortal is generally perceived as a user-friendly platform. However, these positive sentiments coexist with identified areas that merit improvement, especially concerning the accessibility features catering to students with specific needs.. The study highlights the importance of ongoing evaluation and enhancement of digital platforms, such as Moodle, to ensure inclusivity and equal learning opportunities for all students.

The study's findings have implications for the design and optimization of digital platforms to meet the needs of a diverse student population. It also underscores the importance of proactive measures to ensure that the UPOU MyPortal is accessible to every student, irrespective of their unique requirements.
