Making Math Accessible

MathPlayer to support accessibility in Greek

Design Science is pleased to introduce our newest Accessibility Partner, the University of Athens. Professor Georgios Kouroupetroglou, at the University of Athens, Department of Informatics and Telecommunications, in Athens, Greece, is directing the current development of Greek language support in our MathPlayer technology.

As development of future MathPlayer enhancements continues, we'll be happy to collaborate with other language experts in the mathematics field. Please let us know if you are interested, support@dessci.com .  Sprechen Sie Deutsch, anyone?  Find out more information about our Accessibility Partners.
