Guidebooks with recommendations for the design of teaching materials aimed for low vision public: evaluation from the Human-Centered Design perspective Juliana Bueno, Emilia Christie Picelli Sanches, Karina De Abreu Antoniolli, Marluce Reque, Caroline Rodrigues de Lima Infodesign, 2024 Etapa crucial no desenvolvimento de um produto ou sistema, a avaliação está intrinsecamente ligada a processos de Design que partem de uma abordagem centrada no humano. Sendo assim, este artigo tem por objetivo apresentar todo o processo de construção e aplicação da etapa de avaliação de dois guias de recomendações para o desenvolvimento de materiais didáticos para o público com baixa visão. Estes guias foram desenvolvidos sob a ótica do design inclusivo e, neste caso, além de trazer um conteúdo simples para o público atendido, eles deveriam atender a especificações de acessibilidade. O processo contou com duas rodadas de avaliação dos guias propostos: (1) avaliação com especialistas de Design e docente com baixa visão e; (2) docentes especialistas na educação de pessoas com baixa visão. Ambas as rodadas foram substanciais e complementares e trouxeram insights de melhorias e aperfeiçoamento dos materiais finais por parte da equipe de desenvolvimento. Os resultados reforçam a importância da avaliação para um resultado consistente e bem embasado, levando em consideração o público almejado e um repertório comunicacional claro e simples.
The blind and the multimedia learning Emilia Christie Picelli Sanches, Juliana Bueno, Maria Lucia Leite Ribeiro Okimoto Infodesign, 2021 É direito reservado das pessoas com deficiência o completo acesso à informação e aos ambientes de aprendizagem. Para aprendizes cegos, requer-se atenção em como transpor a informação visual para canais sensoriais alternativos, sem sobrecarregar sua capacidade cognitiva. Assim, levando-se em consideração que pessoas cegas utilizam a audição e o tato como alternativas ao canal visual, o presente artigo discute a aprendizagem de pessoas cegas, a partir da perspectiva do Design da Informação e da Teoria Cognitiva do Aprendizado Multimídia (TCAM). Para tanto, busca-se primeiramente compreender a Teoria do Código Duplo e a TCAM, para, então, refletir sobre uma adaptação da TCAM ao contexto da cegueira. Por fim, traz-se três exemplos de materiais acessíveis para corroborar com os pressupostos teóricos apresentados e discutidos.
Requirements for a Framework of a Virtual Learning Environment for Deaf People Mediated by Avatar Marta Angélica Montiel Ferreira, Laura Sánchez García, Juliana Bueno, Tanya Amara Felipe Communications in Computer and Information Science, 2019 This work describes the process of Systematic Review of Literature, developed to collect requirements for the development of an avatar to be used in the Virtual Learning Environment applied to the literacy of deaf people. Two revisions were made. The first one with 23 articles on national and international bases from which it was possible to obtain a preliminary result of the necessary aspects for the Avatar as well as essential requirements for the Virtual Environment. The second one was carried out in the same databases, from which 34 articles were returned to collect the requirements of the Virtual Learning Environment. It can be verified that the deaf users accept the use of the Avatar. The review also served to verify the main technologies used. However, the research confirmed that a suitable avatar would not be sufficient for the proper functioning of a VLE with interface with interaction problems.
ComPasS: A personal organization mobile app for individuals with mental disorders Aurora Cristina Bunn Vieira da Silva, Juliana Bueno Information Design Journal, 2018 Depression and anxiety are common mental health disorders worldwide. People with psychiatric disorders often lack the ability to deal with aspects/activities of daily life. This article describes the development of the Compass app, an app designed to help individuals suffering from mental health disorders. The app presents organizational and planning tools to improve the daily life of these individuals, and, consequently, their well-being. A user-centered design approach was employed in the development of the app, and design requirements were established based on the literature on Mental Health, Psychology, Information and Graphic Design. A functional prototype of the app was created for user testing, and a satisfaction questionnaire was conducted with potential users. The results showed that Compass was a useful and usable app, and that its interface design was easy to interact with and navigate. The results also showed that there were some problems with the design of the app. These problems were taken into consideration in the redesign stage and led to improvements.
Three-dimensional tactile images for blind people: A proposition for a translating model of static two-dimensional images Emilia Christie Picelli Sanches, Claudia Mara Scudelari de Macedo, Juliana Bueno Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing, 2018 This study aims to propose a model to translate static two-dimensional images into three-dimensional tactile images, to be 3D printed, as a way of transmitting information to blind people. The translating model was created from an exploratory method of the literature, which was divided in three steps: 1. Bibliographical review about tactile images, 3D printed tactile images, 3D printing and a search for an analysis model of static two-dimensional images; 2. Tabulation of data found in the bibliographical review and; 3. Model proposition from data crossing. The result is a proposed translating model divided in 4 levels, containing information from recommendations for the creation of tactile images, and a graphic analysis framework.
The use of computational artifacts to support deaf learning: An approach based on the direct way methodology Marta Angélica Montiel Ferreira, Juliana Bueno, Rodrigo Bonacin, Laura Sánchez García Lecture Notes in Computer Science Including Subseries Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence and Lecture Notes in Bioinformatics, 2017 Deaf users face various difficulties accessing the Web. These difficulties are frequently due to low skills on written language, which is a consequence of approaches that do not favor appropriate methods such as bilingual literacy. This method make use of sign language skills to teach a second written language. In this paper, we present studies with deaf students that explore the direct way methodology articulated with computational artifacts aiming to promote the bilingual literacy. This article presents 10 meetings where we performed learning activities with 3 teachers and 12 deaf students. The objective was to apply our approach to improve the reading and writing skills on Portuguese language, as a second language. The studies point out positive results, and the possibility of exploring this approach from the early years of child literacy.
The open university of the unified health system in Brazil (UNA-SUS/UFMA): Identification and hierarchization of problems in distance learning courses Carla Galvão Spinillo, Stephania Padovani, Kelli C.A.S. Smythe, Juliana Bueno, Ana Emília Figueiredo de Oliveira Lecture Notes in Computer Science Including Subseries Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence and Lecture Notes in Bioinformatics, 2017 This article reports a study of heuristic evaluation and hierarchization of the problems found on four distance learning courses offered by the Open University of the Unified Health System in Brazil (UNA-SUS/UFMA). It is part of a broader research on information architecture, interaction design and information design on e-learning courses. The sample was assessed through 88 heuristics and recommendations, followed by the FIP (Frequency, Impact and Persistence) technique to establish the severity of the problems found. The results showed that the sample did not meet (a) the information design principles of consistency, proximity, and hierarchy; and (b) the interaction design criteria of adaptability, explicit control and consistency. The sample also presented weaknesses in the information architecture systems of navigation, labeling and search. The heuristic evaluation followed by the hierarchization of problems have proved to be advantageous at the beginning of the evaluative research project. Recommendations were proposed to improve the distance learning courses.
