We use Web 2.0 resources to fulfill requirements for an interactive-constructivistic {\textquotedblleft}learning space{\textquotedblright}, where blended-teaching paradigm may be proficiently applied. We extend an existing Free/Open Source Software Learning Management System, to create a cooperative and community-based learning space adherent to our proposal.

	abstract = {We describe two open source applications which we have experienced as very useful aids for the integration of people suffering from visual impairments, from hypovision to actual blindness. The first application is based on speech synthesis and has been experienced by disabled university students. The second experience is oriented to schoolchildren with low residual vision, and it provides their educators and parents with easy to use tools for image manipulation, especially designed for exploiting
residual visual abilities.

Minor disadvantages in the use of Impress are outlined, which however do not constitute a serious obstacle to adoption of Open Source tools for our purposes.
