LLaMA (Language Learning and Mobile Accessibility) is a project that aims to improve the accessibility of mobile language learning applications for people with disabilities .

The LLaMA project focuses on developing guidelines, best practices, and tools for designing and testing accessible mobile language learning applications. This includes developing a framework for evaluating ...
