Abstrakt

W niniejszym artykule przeanalizowano w świetle literatury przedmiotu bariery osób niewidomych w bezwzrokowym dostępie do druku. Autorka przedstawiła dogłębną retrospekcję badań nad zagadnieniami dotyczącymi czytników ekranu i monitorów brajlowskich. Wyodrębnione przez nią bariery obejmują złożoność związaną z konwersją druku na alternatywne media (dotykowe i słuchowe), szkolenie z zakresu technologii wspomagających i gotowość tyflopedagogów, a także brak badań nad dobrymi praktykami instruktażowymi oraz szereg zagadnień związanych z ograniczeniami technologii w obszarach dostępności, użyteczności i doświadczenia użytkownika. W zakończeniu sformułowano zalecenia dotyczące praktyki i przyszłych badań w dziedzinie czytników ekranu oraz monitorów brajlowskich.

Słowa kluczowe:

technologia wspomagająca, dostęp, niewidomy, użyteczność, wrażenia użytkownika, brajl, zaburzenia widzenia, czytnik ekranu, wyświetlacz brajlowski
