Promoting Accessibility for Visually Impaired Users through Formative Audiovisual Content

Abstract

Nowadays, web pages and the web make it possible to integrate a huge diversity of resources and services, providing users with new experiences of interaction and participation in different domains. For most users, the use of websites does not entail great difficulties, but for individuals with special needs, namely visual impairments, this type of task becomes complex and makes it difficult or even impossible for the blind or visually impaired population to enjoy and take advantage of this type of services. Therefore, these resources and services must be accessible to the entire population. In this sense, this study appears as a contribution to simplifying the experience of access and use of visually impaired users in the context of web pages, from the creation of tutorials in audiovisual format with accessibility solutions that help this audience navigate Portuguese governmental websites.
