abstract = {The application of the Universal Design for Learning framework favors the creation of virtual educational
environments for all. It requires the development of accessible content, a usable platform and the use of
flexible didactics and evaluations that promote the constant motivation of students. The present study
aims to design a methodology to evaluate the usability of the Moodle platform based on the principles of
Universal Design for Learning. It recognizes the importance of accessibility, usability and the availability
of Assistive Technologies in an inclusive virtual education that meets the needs of students. We developed
and applied a methodology to assess the level of usability of Moodle, taking into account that they integrate
Assistive Technologies or are used for MOOC contexts. We employ the mixed design research framework to
evaluate a MOOC-type educational program. We conclude that Universal Design for Learning principles
and guidelines are positively valued by students and have a positive impact on certification rates.},
