However there is a question for people who are interested in supporting and developing education for people with disabilities: What is the impact of information technology on the lives of visually impaired people? The answer to this question has been raised to varying degrees by countries and communities that pay close attention to disability issues and give them considerable attention. Interest from societies and countries is, of course, conditioned by political, economic, and social factors that can make the needs of people with a type of welfare for some governments and communities. In this paper, a new method is introduced for developing websites for visually impaired people by employing Braille codes and the HTML language to provide audio material via the Internet following the use of specialized web pages with pre-selected curricula to support the training of visually impaired people.

Modern technologies are often designed for healthy people, while the number of people with disabilities and especially visually impaired people is significant. 4.5% of children belong to the category of people with disabilities throughout the world [2]. In France, approximately 100,000 people have or will have vision problems out of 750,000 annual births [3]. With such a large number of people with disabilities, researchers have presented several methods to facilitate teaching visually impaired people to reduce the differences between the educational opportunities offered to visually impaired people and their peers, the most important of which is the voice. However, this method cannot be employed in noisy public places and also to evaluate the blind online, as most speech recognition applications are not accurate enough and require a quiet place to insert text [1] [3]. In the field of education, blind or visually impaired students should have the same access as sighted students to all standards, curricula, and education to achieve the necessary levels of literacy and also high academic expectations and to become productive citizens. [3] This paper provides a method for developing educational websites to provide more educational opportunities for visually impaired students by utilizing the Internet to produce general or academic sounds to facilitate the learning process and research concepts to find techniques for supporting the education of impaired people through website development, which provides links to an electronic audio library containing books, articles, lectures and other items in audio format based on their age. This library is processed by visually impaired people trained in practicing Braille [5] [6] [7]. 2. Proposed E-Learning Method for Visually Impaired and Blind Students E-learning contributes to enhancing the quality of life of students [8]. Despite many attempts to develop e-learning platforms, many of these platforms are not practical for people with impaired vision; it is important to discuss the problems of applying e-learning technologies faced by students with impaired eyesight and also to understand that many of these platforms which are ineffective for people with impaired sight [9]. The Braille e-mail possesses a frequency of errors, and this issue leads to their limited application in an Internet search engine to obtain the required results, or conduct CITE THIS PAPER [1] Yasar Abdul Razak Al-Jaleeli , Anis F.
