This work focuses on the use of Interactive Applications (IA) as an educational resources applied in the context of inclusive education. The Learning Object Metadata standard (LOM) is often used to facilitate the share and reuse of Learning Objects (LO). This standard suggests a wide set of metadata to describe a LO from the general, educational or even technical points of view. However this standard is not enough to describe overall the accessibility aspects and proper considerations of the Educational Interactive Applications. Therefore, this work presents a proposal to extend the LOM standard for the purpose to get extensive descriptions on the use of interactive applications as educational resources in inclusive education.
