As distance education advances, mandates for accessibility and appropriate instructional design for instructors/learners with special needs are becoming critical. This article presents a distance education American Sign Language (ASL) pilot course that blended the Internet, videoconferencing, and streaming video-based “learning objects” posted on the web for the purpose of learner practice. Because of the success of the course learning objects they were later archived on CD-ROM, imported into a Compaq™ iPAQ™ for mobile use, and placed in a knowledge repository for global use.
