In today's world, e-learning is very important and popular. E-learning provides a new approach of learning. E-learning means in which learner learns through the medium of internet, CDs or by installing the tools and software available. E-learning was earlier developed to teach math and reading to young children in elementary schools. But later on it was popular in organizations, where they use e-learning to train their trainees. Organizations spend more money on transporting and housing trainees than on actual training programs. E-learning has capacity to reduce this cost. As the expense of formal education in the educational institutes is increasing very fast, the expense of education via the internet is comparatively low and affordable. Although technology is growing up, however requirements of common people and disabled people are still not taking into account properly. For this a new concept needs to be embedded in the e-learning that is speech enabled e-learning. It provides full user interaction, in this user can ask the questions and reply back to the questions, can give commands to e-learning application.
