The U.S. Justice Department has reached a settlement with edX, the prominent MOOC provider, to bring it into compliance with federal antidiscrimination laws.
According to the terms of the agreement, edX will make its website and learning-management system fully accessible to the disabled within 18 months; ensure that the system used to create online courses is also accessible within 18 months; and create two new positions to oversee accessibility, among other things. As part of the agreement, edX denied it was not in compliance with the Americans With Disabilities Act.
